The World's 18 Worst Intersections And Interchanges

A collection of 18 of the world's worst intersections and interchanges. Bonus Google Earth contest inside to see if you can name four of them. The prize? A 2010 Ford Mustang model! Oh Boy!

The odds are good you've battled your way through some version of hell on this morning's roadways on the way to your cubicle. But maybe you don't have it so bad; unless you're unfortunate enough to live near one of these monstrosities. Partake in some delicious schadenfreude as you look down upon these poor commuting schmucks.

Piss Off TomTom

Minneapolis Chicago Tokyo, Japan Taganskaya Square, Moscow Shanghai, China The Central Motorway Junction - New Zealand State Highways 1 and 16, Auckland, New Zealand. Tom Moreland Interchange, intersection of Interstate 85 and Interstate 285, Atlanta, Georgia, USA Italy Sao Paulo, Brazil China The Rt. 440 in New Jersey Golden Glades interchange in N. Miami Beach, FL

Now, you're probably asking, "Hey Andy, where's that Mustang model you promised?" Well, it ain't gonna be that easy. The Rules start below:

The Concept: You're given four wacky intersections below under the cleverly named "Contest Intersections" heading. Your job is to scan Google Earth and find exactly where these places are located.

The Submission Format: Your entry must be emailed to Didorosi@Jalopnik.com before December 15th at 11:59PM. Contained within the email must be four working Google Earth links to each of the four locations. Subject line on the email must be, "Worst Intersection Contest Submission: I Love El Caminos" Any deviation from this format or late entry will not be accepted. Any attempts at RickRolling will result in a swift kick to the man vegetables.

Winning: Prize is one 2010 Ford Mustang toy model. Standard contest rules apply.

Best of luck.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot:

Special Disqualification: Dearthair is disqualified from this contest simply because I don't like the cut of his jib. Just kidding. Have at it.
