[Talk-us] Motorway vs trunk classification for RI-4 and US-1 in Rhode Island

[Paul Johnson]

As a postscript, I'd like to remind folks that freeways (motorway) are a
subset of expressways (trunk).  All motorways also fit the qualification of
trunk, not all trunks meet the qualifications for motorway.  When on the
fence, go trunk.
