Movie is working ;)  But if it is giving you an assertion in debug and 
works in release mode it simply means you're using undefined behavior. 
You should never rely on something like this.

Not directly. If you really need to tag individual triangles it isn't 
doable with a simple texture. In this case my next approach actually 
would include using vertex colors and some shader to draw flat colored 
triangles based on the provoking vertex.
The problem that makes this non-trivial is simply due to the vertex 
sharing. If you duplicate the vertices (or at least some of them) it is 
solveable without fancy tricks in 5 minutes, but depending on the number 
of triangles in your road this might not be an option.
So how many triangles will be in your road?

Cheers
