Title: U.S. Route 5 sign featured on Shell "Drive for Five" card
Post by: epzik8 on January 16, 2017, 01:25:46 PM
I was filling up at the local Shell station today and noticed some applications for their five-cents-back program called Drive for Five, which has a card to go along with it. The application displays the card as having an image of a U.S. Route 5 sign on it. So I figured why not snap a picture to show the roadgeeks.

On the West Coast, Shell had better use I-5...LOL!

Can confirm the actual card has the shield on it. No, I won't be posting a picture, for obvious reasons.

This is old news, as my Shell card has always had that on there since 2010.

Even on the West Coast, it has a US-5 shield. I don't have a Shell card, but it is advertised at all their stations.

The Interstate shield is trademarked by the AASHTO, right? That would seem to preclude Shell from using it.
