Unless you're out in the boonies and there's not but a single road headed in the direction you need...
East-coast highways only let you exit once every 20 miles. So you're pretty much stuck once you get on.
Unless you're going through a city. At that point it's a trade off between highway traffic jams, or inter-city gridlock.

As an example, here is Philadelphia's archaic road map

And here is Los Angeles.

See how much more 'square' LA is? Much easier to navigate.
