What is the Lincoln Highway?

I’ve heard mention of some elusive Lincoln Highway, but I have no idea what it is! Could you enlighten me?

The Lincoln Highway was the first transcontinental highway for cars in the U.S. It was built in 1913 and runs from
New York
across the country—all the way to
San Francisco
!
If you’ve never heard of the Lincoln Highway, it’s because we don’t usually call it that anymore. Now it’s called Interstate 80 (I-80).
If you plan on highway driving—or driving at all—make sure you’re set with ample
car insurance
