A few Examples:
You can cross RT44 on the south end.
You can take it to the new Lowes on 466a.
If you live in the historic area you can take it to Sam's Club, Home Depot and many other places in those malls. You can cross Rolling Acres to get to all the stores there (you CAN NOT cross 441). You can take it to our periodontist or other doctors on CR100 behind Walmart on 466.

When one has 1 car it makes getting around more convenient when the one car is in use.
I'm sure half of what you stated is practically useless or false.

You can cross RT44 on the south end. At Morse - no you can't because CR468 has a 45 mph speed limit. At Buena Vista - great, you can visit Wildwood Country Resort. At Powell Road - Hey, you can shop at Sparr and the new small strip of retail.

You can take it to the new Lowe's on 466a. No, because CR466A has a 45 mph speed limit. You must use 466A to enter Lowe's.

doctors on CR100 behind Walmart on 466. I'm sure you meant CR103. (I know I'm nit picking on this one.)

Edit: I'm not "piling on." I didn't see the post by JerryP at the time I posted this.
