FL 818 on I-95 North:

Just a heads up that Raymond is fond of modifying sign colors, shields, text, and fonts to his liking...not what is actually posted in the field.

That said, that image is very close to the actual sign (it looks like he changed the shade of green, but left the rest of the arrangement alone).

Judging by GSV, it seems the actual sign in the field doesnt have the "EAST" tag written on it.  https://goo.gl/maps/qkGQzpN3J8E2

I'm not gonna penalize anyone because I don't expect anyone to know they have to sift out this guy's doctored signs.

10-4.  Will stay away from his photos henceforth

Your link is along FL 869, not I-95. Here's the GSV in question; why Raymond Yue decided an "Exit Only" tab was needed is beyond me. The westbound exit does have the tab in real-life. (NB I-95 has A-B exits for 816 west-east, SB I-95 has a single exit for both directions.)

Fair enough. The site doesn't seem to mention that they're heavily-doctored images, so it's hard to tell the difference if you don't compare them with your own photos or have not passed by them hundreds of times.

If that photo was taken before 2011, it is legit.  Here is a link to a GMSV image taken in 2011... https://goo.gl/maps/ygiNpHdXDZ42.  Why the lane drop panel was omitted on the current sign is a mystery to me. Never mind... just realized that the lane drop is for FL-816 west.  The FL-816 east exit doesn't need the lane-drop panel because it's a regular exit.

Crap, I'm planning to snap a picture of 915 on the July 31 but won't be able to post it until at least August 7.  This thread might very well pass me up by then.  We totally blew the 700s out of the water, didn't we!

We're posting about 63 numbers a week, or 9 a day. Projecting it forward, here are estimates of the numbers we will reach by future dates:

07-21 884
07-28 947
08-05 1010
08-12 1073
08-19 1136

Yeah, unless we start running into a bunch of missing numbers, we're probably going to blow past your 915 by August 7.

I'll also be driving be 1080 and 1086, but those aren't at stoplighted intersections, doggone it...

I pulled over to the side of the road to get mine. Just need a shoulder, parking lot or someone's driveway.

[kphoger]

You probably didn't have another vehicle following you, full of non-roadgeeks...

My new strategy is to stall the thread by talking around the subject until my number comes up (literally, not figuratively).

A tertiary shield? Those are pretty rare to find. Any other states have a tertiary highway system?
