Routes with the most or fewest drivers
« on: January 13, 2017, 09:01:16 am »
I was looking at my travels in Kentucky the other day and noticed that I am the only driver who has traveled KY99 (total drivers: 1, total clinched: 1). It got me thinking about which routes have either the most drivers or those with the fewest number of drivers. It seems the information is kept in the db.

Is there an easy way to see which routes have the largest number of drivers or those that have the fewest (excluding any routes that have zero drivers)?

This is more of a curiosity than an actual need. I figure, you don't get to learn the answer unless you ask the question.

I-76 in PA has 108 user http://tm.teresco.org/hb/index.php?u=si404&r=pa.i076 I believe this is the highest.
I-95 in MD has 107 http://tm.teresco.org/hb/index.php?u=si404&r=md.i095
NJTP has 100 http://tm.teresco.org/hb/index.php?u=si404&r=nj.njtpk and I've not found any more than these 3 that are in the 100 club in my 'educated guess' look.

I hope to add "heat maps" like CHM had.  Or maybe someone else will...

This is great. I'd love to see it, or something like it, on the main page. Thanks for posting.

As for fewest drivers, without diving into the database (have better things to do on Maui the next week and a half), you are going to have a lot of routes out west or in the Arctic with only one user (in Arctic North America, usually me) or zero users.

Might be more productive to focus on the better-used systems, such as Interstates or U.S. routes, for more meaningful "least traveled" stats.

Great stuff everyone.

I realized as I was looking over the info on the most traveled routes, that there are likely many routes with just a single driver. I rarely see that in my own stats, though I do see many routes where I'm one of 2 or 3. Occasionally I'll see one where I'm the sole driver (KY99) or one I've clinched that only one or two others have driven at all (UT73). Given that I live in mapcat territory, it's almost certain that he's driven many of the same roads I have, at least within a reasonable distance from home (like everything in Ohio).  ;)

Oscar is right, getting that detail for systems in tier 3, 4, or 5 is probably not particularly meaningful.

One route that I had found odd that I am the only one to have clinched is PA 902 (goes from US 209 in Lansford to PA 443 near Lehighton via Summit Hill).  I guess it is just an afterthought to the other mentioned routes.

This will never be in the case for me in VA as long as mapmikey is around though.   ;)

Act now and you can beat me to these segments that have changed since I finished Virginia in 2010:

VA 80 near Kentucky Line
US 460/VA 83 bypass at Grundy
VA 172 west of VA 134
VA 164 extension
US 17 bridge over Intercoastal  Waterway

I will be picking up these last 3 in April.

Already too late for anyone to beat me to:

VA 8 bypass at Stuart
VA 280
VA 281

 :D

All of these (the top two via the Pikeville 2013 Meet as I believe VA 80 was already realigned then) have been clinched by me except for VA 8 (who knows if I will ever get to this one) and VA 280. I still consider the widened section of US 58 west of Meadows of Dan clinched as the alignment change was minor enough to be seen from its old route as it was under construction when I clinched it in 2014.

For the record, the stats still only show you as having clinched VA 80 and VA 83.  Others have already reclinched VA 172 (though that was an original clinch for me) and VA 164 (I remember thing342 posting pictures on AARoads) so I am still not alone on any total route clinches in VA.

Cool :)

However, why do you limit it to 25? What's about a drop-down menu so that the user can select, e.g.  25 - 50 - 100 - 200 - 500 - 1000? Dunno if "all" would make sense (loading time etc.). For instance, I'd like to know which route is number one in Europe. Maybe even a region/system selection etc. one day?

btw: What's about table no. 4 "Most Driven Routes"?
