 Expressway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Under California's definition, many famous expressways would be classified as "freeways" instead of "expressways," such as the Gardiner Expressway in Toronto, the Schuylkill Expressway in Philadelphia, and the Palmetto Expressway in Miami, Florida.
The vast majority of expressways in either sense are built by state or provincial governments, or by private companies which then operate them as toll roads pursuant to a license from the government.
Although there were some plans to upgrade the county expressways into full-fledged freeways, those became politically infeasible after the rise of the tax revolt movement in the mid-1970s.

Unfortunately, tragedy struck along the South Luzon Expressway (SLEX) when one of the motorcycle officers was killed in an accident on the way to IRRI.
In fact, we assert that the ban actually increases the risk of accident or injury to all road users (motor vehicle occupants, bicyclists, and pedestrians) by forcing an entire group of road users (i.e., motorcyclists) onto roads where the actual number of road hazards is greater.
On the expressways, by design, traffic movement is highly predictable to all road users due to the one-way or uni-directional flow of traffic within a very narrow speed range.
