Southbound, indeed

u/SpaceBullion 13d ago

I was thinking 5 north right after merging from 50

u/Ill_Garbage4225 13d ago

No northbound off-ramp fits that layout. Sadly I know too well sitting in traffic every day

u/Any_Travel704 12d ago

Yeah, I figured this was going to be an easy post for those who sit in traffic.

u/Any_Travel704 12d ago

Not northbound

Another easy one I-5 near old town by embassy suites. That purple glass “gravel” is unmistakeable.

u/Ill_Garbage4225 13d ago

PURPLE???????

u/CryptographerDry884 13d ago

Yes it’s purple when you drive by it. For the kings. Purple and black

u/Ill_Garbage4225 12d ago

Funny I’ve always seen it as blue. This prompted me to ask family and friends and it’s a pretty even split of people seeing blue vs purple.

u/CryptographerDry884 12d ago

Well it could be blue. I’ve been told I’m
Color blind. I don’t think I am but who knows.

u/Ill_Garbage4225 12d ago

I found an article from when it was installed. Final verdict is that theyre technically blue but often appear purple in the light 💜💙

u/WhereinAssistant Solved 1 13d ago

Reading all the comments, I agree with them all.

u/geehawn 13d ago

And I agree with your comment.

u/WhereinAssistant Solved 1 12d ago

And I concur with yours

Everyone got it right, except one.
