Read the sentence. We drove north on the highway before my dad realized that we were supposed to take the exit in coppertown. Which word in the sentence needs to be capitalized?

Coppertown is the name of a specific place, so it should be capitalized: “Coppertown.” In “my dad,” dad is a family title used after a possessive, so it stays lowercase. The direction north and the general word highway also stay lowercase here.
