I95 is 3000 miles from LA.
At least they said 'the I95,' which at least makes it sound like it's in California.
Dialects are interesting. In my native Pittsburgh, I always said 'Route 28' or maybe '79,' but now that I'm in LA, I always say 'take the 405 to the 10.'
While in Boston "the [number]" would mean a bus.
perhaps he was just agreeing and sharing an anecdote about the inaccuracy...
