I currently forget which, but a national road in Japan officially becomes a 
staircase near its terminus, as the government managed  "road" is significant 
older than cars, and for historical reasons, the staircase is legally 
considered part of the road. 

There are some national primary/trunk roads that have a modern tertiary bypass, 
but the 200 year old primary bypassed section that goes down a "toboggan route" 
down a mountain or narrows to less than 2 meters is still considered the 
primary/trunk route for the same reasons - which is a real pain to reconcile.
