The interstate across the Everglades is named Alligator Alley. True or False?

• A. True
• B. False
• C. It is called Everglades Expressway
• D. It is called Shark Alley

Answer: (A)

Think about the common name people use for the long stretch of highway that crosses the Everglades. That route is popularly known as Alligator Alley, a nickname that comes from the wildlife seen in the Everglades and the expansive marshland the road traverses. Because of this well-known designation, the statement is true. The other names aren’t used in everyday travel references—Everglades Expressway and Shark Alley aren’t the commonly recognized names for this interstate, so they don’t fit.
