[quote M A V I C][quote Paul F.] "THE 405"
I've heard "the 405" before. With I-5, at least there is only one. With 405, there are at least two. They should really be saying "a 405" (if they have to add something to it.)
It's shorthand that conveys the message. Isn't that the purpose of language?
Just be thankful you aren't going from Washington to Boston; that's a wicked awful route to navigate and once you get to Boston, everything you ever learned about driving is instantly disproven.
