I take pictures of road signs, that's about it.

General rule of thumb: Just stay in the "Traffic Control" section of the forum and you'll be fine.

A vehicle lost control and slammed into these signs. Only one was bent but the whole assembly was replaced.

BTW, I looked for one for Juneau AK in my photo collection (in case anybody wanted to make this a continuing challenge running until we picked up something from all 50 states), no luck. Problem is the only highway serving Juneau is entirely within city limits, so the city probably isn't used as a destination, though maybe Jim has an example in his photo collection.

Lansing, MI.  This is the northern terminus of US-127 south of Grayling.

It shouldn't be that hard to find a captial on a highway sign, most captials are on the interstate system.  I think it would be a better challenge to see if you can have more than one.

Somebody already posted Albany and Boston in the same pic.  Does anyone have a pic with three or four capitals?

Unless the three are close together or are on the same route I would struggle to find such a sign. The best I can find in my photo collection is two. Here is Topeka and Des Moines taken in 2012.

New Mexico never ceases to astound me with their crappy signage.  And this is coming from a guy who drives in "Old Mexico".

To me, that sign looks like "Santa Relief / Fe Route".

I had hope of a Hartford-Boston-Albany combo around here on I-91 South, but if that exists, I don't have a picture of it.  So here's a Boston/Albany.  August 30, 2007.



Here's a St. Paul/Madison, as I-494 becomes I-694.  July 31, 2010.



The rare Columbus/Denver combo on I-70 in Maryland. August 14, 2018.
