This is actually not true. A lot of people seem to think so, however; I
think it goes back to an error in one of Cisco's early routing classes
that has been reprinted in a lot of books.

The AD of static routes to physical interfaces is also 1:

R2#sh run | i ip route
ip route 1.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 FastEthernet0/0

R2#sh ip route 1.1.1.0
Routing entry for 1.1.1.0/24
  Known via "static", distance 1, metric 0 (connected)
  Routing Descriptor Blocks:
  * directly connected, via FastEthernet0/0
      Route metric is 0, traffic share count is 1

Static pointing to a physical interface instead of a next hop is
actually an
AD of 0.
