I'm confused


Well, so much for the car.

For the first pic: drive slowly in the intersection, stopping and going every 10 feet, and receive a $101 dollar fine!  :pan:

Ok, honestly, that is a weird sign.

For the second sign: That is a lie! Lying sign! Okay.. as I was saying, you need a word with that state's or county's DOT.

Can a truck route and a mainline route duplex? (US 441 south at CR 19A in Lake County, FL.)



Seems like NJDOT invaded CR 65C in Gadsden County, FL.



Not a road sign, but something is terribly wrong inside this Florida Welcome Station.
So many roads...so little time.

Does Not Compute!  :banghead:

This one has to do with the fonts...

US71's post is pointing out the One-Way signs.  One of them points the wrong way from that vantage point

Moses Lake Washington has that crazed business loop signage anomaly too

The error in this one is that this IS VA 337.

Finally, VA 168 is AWOL:

Supposed to be US-202!

Unless it's different in that part of NY, isn't US 202 North/South and not East/West?  (At least it is in DE/PA/NJ)

I didn't have my camera with me, but I spotted two errors in Port Huron. On M-25 southbound, there's a South M-136 sign and right after that is a Jct M-136 sign. Douh! Also, on Business I-94, there's an East blazer on the west side!

Hallett is mispelled on the right BGS at this toll plaza on U.S. 412 East (Cimarron Turnpike) (Click on link below to see the bigger picture)

This sign uses a mixture of upper & lower case:



U.S. 59 is signed "East" here when it should be signed "South":

E-W in NY, CT (though it may switch at US 44, I forget), NH, and ME.

That's the second OK tollbooth that uses a bridge for cover  :-/

I just got back from a trip to Yellowstone and southern Montana, and saw several mistakes.  Here are a few of them:

This is on MT 47 just north of I-90 in Hardin, MT


OR 82 in La Grande


On OR 201 south of Adrian, OR


One of the infamous US 20-395 goofs in the Burns, OR area:


Last from the Department of Redundancy Department on I-15 in Idaho (this was the exit for US 26/BL 15 before those routes were relocated to a new exit 2 miles north):

excellent, a US-201 error.  Have not seen that one. 

the 47 replaced an older US-47 shield!  Here is a US-39 with the older style.  Note the narrower numbers. 



39 and 47 are notable for never having been US highway numbers. There also was not an 88, and I do not know if 37 or 86 were ever signed.

I have a photo of another US 39 (actually OR 39), but the error had been fixed the last time I passed the spot.

These kind of mistakes are all over the place in Oregon.

What happened to Exit 150B?(there are actually two exits for SR 619 on I-95 SB)

OR 82 in La Grande


I'll probably see this one heading out to Lake Wallowa in a couple weeks.

A Jnct. US 224 shield northbound on SE 17th Ave between OR 99E and OR 224 in Milwaukie, OR.

One from a number of years ago: A US 92 East trailblazer just east of I-15 on UT 15.

There were a few more US 224 signs down by Barton, but I think I saw they'd been fixed last time I went through.

Be careful you don't miss the US 82 sign.  If you exit the freeway and head east, you'll never see it -- it's on eastbound 82 one block after the highway's start off US 30, posted on a railroad overpass.  It's been there for years, so they don't seem to be in a hurry to fix the mistake.

I could write paragraphs describing all the instances of route mis-signage (is that a word?) in Oregon.  The four I posted earlier are the tip of the iceberg.
