Did you check surrounding segments? Maybe an old shield hanging around somewhere... Permalink?

I think I've seen similar URs in that area... Do the ramps at the bottom of your image go to 146?

Missing road (user reported)
Problem:
MY TRAIN IS MISSING!
:evil:

And it's not a regular railroad, it's the short run steam train/tourist attraction - and the UR wasn't posted at the station, but in the middle of the run.

General error (user reported)
Problem:
I am in the mall parking lot, but it wants me to go to other side of the mall to "arrive" at destination.
So? Just press stop & park the car. That mall parking lot is mapped to guidelines.

CA needs all the additional toll revenue we can get. (Although seriously, Not much info to help resolve, since no start or end destination included.)
Jolly!
You missed the check box below the post that says "Disable BBCode for this post", if you unchecked it (like I just did) it works.

:? Funny, shouldn't the forum use my default post settings (=bbcode enabled) when I edit his post?
Nope, it uses the OP's settings when they created the post, then you are just editing what is already included in the data associated with the post.

*edit, ok looked around and have no idea what he/she is even talking about. Maybe their GPS sucks and it thought they were on Paseo Dr S, instead of Baymeadows Dr (further west), so he/she turned onto it?

This looks like something that's been popping up a lot recently. Ever since the Minimize Turns Option went away, it seems that Waze is doing more and more "around the block" routing. Where it will take a user off a Primary Street (or above) onto side roads (Street type) and back onto the original road, or instead of simply making a left turn at the intersection of two main streets (both Primary or above), it will take a turn onto a side street, then onto another side street and then onto the other main street (making 3 turns instead of one).
