Near Yuma, Interstate 8 crosses a steep mountain range.  In order to keep grade-increases at a reasonable level, the westbound-lane crosses over the eastbound-lane, and remains parallel like this for a few miles.  This setup is similar to Interstate 5's "Five Mile Grade" crossing in Los Angeles County, California.
