Those are some of the first below-grade expressways built in the country, so the shorter on ramps are from an era with fewer and slower cars, and there isn't space to lengthen them. The law only changed to stop the insurance companies from using zip codes to determine rates, and reduced the maximum payout for healthcare related costs from a crash, with the aim of lowering costs, but of course the insurance companies worked around it.

    I learned about the infrastructure at the time but that's why being unaccustomed was a hinderance, especially when it's unexpected. The insurance stuff seems likely more in line with what I was told than what I was remembering in short.
