The first heavy-drinking U.S. president, as well as the first presidential college dropout, James Monroe – like John Adams and Thomas Jefferson before him – died on Independence Day, the last president to date to bear that trivia distinction.

Experts have come to the conclusion that additional U.S. freeways does not automatically ease vehicle congestion. An example was shown in Springfield, Virginia, outside of Washington, D.C. The 8-year, $434 million freeway construction project resulted in commuters shaving only 30 seconds off of their drive time. The conclusion was that motorists lost more time in delays during construction than they could make up once the construction was complete.
