You can't. Assuming an alternate history where Ike built the highways before the line laws were passed, even having the tarmac in place wouldn't be enough. The roads simply couldn't handle the volume they do if there wasn't a way of tidying up and directing the traffic.
There's a spot where the highway's being redone (when isn't it?) and new lines were painted over the old, which were still visible. Although there were no obstructions, I noticed that everyone slowed down significantly while they figured out where the lanes actually were, then sped up again as they sorted it out.
