If a state goes metric on roads and neighbouring states don't then that could lead to problems at the border and put pressure on to revert. Furthermeore there will be the problems of car instrumentation, what do manufacturrs do, provide km/h or mph guages?

Hello Pat. in your post you said that when a company  or person or country where metric has been adopted never goes back to pre metric measurements. Most of the States that had gone to metric in their departments of transportations have gone back to imperial. like i have said before this is a big step backwards in going metric in the states. I wonder how California is doing in their return to imperial measurements in their department of transportation?
