I was having similar thoughts about US 301 in northern VA.  I travel it
almost everyday for work and would call it primary more than trunk.  Even
when it seems like a trunk, there are driveways and businesses directly
adjacent to it.  The only portion I'd call trunk between the Harry Nice
Bridge and I 95 is the section that passes through Fort AP Hill, where there
are no turns and the only level crossing is a usually locked/guarded gate
about half-way through.

Cheers,

Adam
