If you fell asleep at the beginning of a 4 hour drive where I live, and woke up at the end, odds are very very high that you wouldn't be able to tell any difference in the surroundings.

It's a shorter drive getting the San Diego, California to El Paso, Texas than from El Paso to Beaumont Texas on the same road.

If you're in Los Angeles, you may not have left your county yet
There are many states where you can drive more than 4 hours and not leave, but now I wonder about the reverse: what is the maximum number of states you can reach in a 4-hour drive?
Surely, the route has to be through many of the small states in New England. I think it would be tough to reach more than 5.
Without traffic you might be able to get Maine,new Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey and maybe Pennsylvania, but that route would take you through/close to Boston and New York City, so there'll be traffic
