Clever, but I'm going to want a ruling from the judge on this.

I tell ya hWAT, it fits the rules as written.  I'm not a fan because you people seem to try to find any way possible that you can bend the freaking rules  :crazy:  :banghead:, but it technically adheres to all the rules.

Dude, this one deserves extra credit!  Electro-shield!  Now I totally want to see a post-mounted reassurance marker done the same way...

JohnnyMo from SABRE provides us with A505 (at A1(M) J9 just after rerouting the road there).

^^ they also striped off half that lane on the right, making the A1(M) two lanes through the junction. The long lens squashes to make it look worse, but I don't know why there needs to be yellow rumble (yes, these are raised and you feel when you go over them) strips across the sliproad, or red tarmac on part of the hatching between the two directions.

It being a fugly mess is one of the reasons why I held off lower 50x roads and posted this one.

More from corco!  Anticipating a lot of Washington routes from 500-548ish.  And yeah I understand it took some people a bit to familiarize themselves with the rules; the stupid scores I came up with for people don't matter at all.  I appreciate all the photos you have contributed- I'm learning quite a bit about where I can find other sites with roadgeek photos like this.  :cool:

Old signs count, right? If so, I found an old one of 508.

Old signs are totally legit, and they have been used in this thread on many occasions.  Because, as Mitch Hedberg said,

"People say, 'here's a picture of me when I was younger.'  EVERY picture is a picture of you when you were younger."

Now replace "you" with "a road sign" and you get the idea haha.  I don't think there's any viable way to prohibit photos that aren't current...because no photo EVER is technically current

You got me there. I just wanted to make sure because I found a website with an article dedicated to County Route 508, and the image with the new sign is in much poorer quality.

I know I just posted 508, but it's been about 27 hours since the last number was posted, so I'm going to post 511.


Credits to wikipedia for the image.

I have images of routes 516, 521, 526, 531, 536, and 541. And none of them are the same type of route. Adding spice is nice.

Also, I want to see if you guys notice the error with one of the signs in the image.  :-D

Route marker for NL 513 in Labrador, one of the branches from the Trans-Labrador Highway:



P.S. I traveled all of NL 513 in late summer 2011, saw no icebergs, I guess it wasn't the right season for icebergs. Biting black flies, OTOH, were definitely in season.
