These are 15 U.S. highways nobody drives anymore, and why they're still there. From the abandoned Pennsylvania Turnpike and the Rays Hill Tunnel to the Graffiti Highway in Centralia, the Chain of Rocks Bridge on Route 66, the Old Seven Mile Bridge in the Florida Keys, Devil's Slide on Highway 1 and the Long Island Motor Parkway, America's first highway built only for cars. Each of these roads was closed, bypassed or left behind, and almost none of them were ever torn down.
