i understand that when the plan for Interstates was made in the Eisenhower administration, it was stated that at one out of every five miles had to be straight for an airplane to have a landing spot in case of an emergency.

See... this is not good... Now I'll be checking the mileage and the fact how much of the interstate I drive to and from work every day is straight.

Accident safety. The wheels on the cars must only have to turn a certain number of times with in a several mile radius.....

There are several reasons. To assist with stormwater run off is one and I am just too embarrassed to admit I know the rest, I'm a civil engineer. I build bridges and roads.

Save money on supplies. Also, what good does a round highway do?

That would be a little tough in the hilly region where I live. Why, maybe so drivers don't get dizzy?
