In Missouri, if the route has three digits in the number, they just make a fatter Missouri silhouette to fit it:

a street with a route 366 sign, which shows the wider Missouri silhouette

Made me laugh the first time I saw it!

Sorry Kansas and Nebraska, Missouri needs the extra space.

Why does the sign look Photoshopped in?

Idk friend, this is straight from wikipedia

[โ€“] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Thanks for the context but that doesn't answer the question. Was someone pointing an extremely bright light at the sign? It's much brighter than the surrounding area.

Ohio does the same thing

You should do the Canadian ones too, they are all pretty cool. None of them are uninspiring monochrome circles or squares.

I think I meant Black and White, but it's interesting that N&L chose the word Route instead of the province name.

I wish more of these maps added the territories.

Florida is pretty good, however the colored ones are prettier

Texas didn't even try lmao, they have such a workable shape too, they just didn't even try

Unclear if this is the most complimentary piece of racism I've ever heard.....

Florida nailed it by getting the state outline recognizable without cramming it in weirdly. Props to Pennsylvania for doing the Keystone State thing instead of a big square.

What's up with the goatsie in New Mexico?

Highway 6, aka the best thing to ever come out of College Station

New Mexico, as well as their flag, is straight fire.

Somehow I never realized that some have color.
