Part of the reason freeways were built was to serve as emergency runways in times of war.

It is said that one out of every four miles of interstate freeway has to be straight for this purpose.

It was first adopted from the German Autobahns. The US implicated it to connect all major cities together and also for use if there were an emergency.
