  List of Missouri highways - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
State highways in Missouri were first designated in 1922 and Missouri's system was used (along with Wisconsin's) as a plan for the entire U.S. Highway System which was created in 1926.
Missouri has also changed highway designations with a US highway or an interstate with the same number is designated through the state (Missouri State Highway 40 was redesignated Missouri State Highway 14 to avoid duplicating numbers with U.S. Highway 40 which also passes through the state).
State highways in Missouri are the responsibility of the Missouri Department of Transportation.

 Missouri - The Show-Me state always picks right in the presidential campaign. Will 2004 break its streak? By Chris ...
Politically, the map of Missouri resembles the nation's: The red-blue divide from the county-by-county map of the 2000 election is marked by blue "coasts" around Kansas City and St. Louis, with a giant, mostly red swath in the middle.
The areas outside of the state's two major metropolitan areas are known in politics as "outstate," and just as national politicians in America tend to hail from the South and Midwest, successful statewide politicians in Missouri almost always come from outstate, particularly the southwest.
In the rest of Missouri, St. Louis is perceived as an uppity, eastern enclave—"The Gateway Arch, they claim it's the gateway to the West, but I always thought it was the back door to the East," a Jefferson City lobbyist told me—and its candidates fare poorly in Missouri's statewide races.

 Missouri State Auditor's Office - 2000-
Missouri’s roads and bridges are deteriorating and generally are in worse condition than those in neighboring states, partly because Missouri is responsible for a larger highway system than neighboring states with the sixth largest in the nation.
The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) is responsible for approximately 26 percent of all roads in the state; however, about 70 percent of vehicle travel in the state is on these roads.
During the period from 1996 to 1999, the percentage of Missouri roads rated as good or better was decreasing, while the percentage of roads rated good or better for the neighboring states and the nation was increasing.

States might also examine whether it is possible to use data concerning the disposition of accommodation requests to revise aspects of their reasonable accommodation procedures.

Every person operating or riding as a passenger on any motorcycle or motortricycle, as defined in section 301.010, RSMo, upon any highway of this state shall wear protective headgear at all times the vehicle is in motion.
Although the Missouri Legislature may believe that they can authorize the "director" to reasonable standards and specifications for "protective headgear," the director is confined, by law, to adopting only those standards established by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
If the director had adopted FMVSS 218, which the law insists that he ultimately must, the Missouri helmet law is thereby rendered unconstitutionally vague and can be challenged on that basis, and removed.
