Are you fascinated by complex highway interchanges?

Do you bookmark when you find a complex interchange on Google maps?
How about this page? Would you like to submit any?

I am actually interested

I actually remember reading an article way back when and it used google maps to explain all the different types of Interchanges, I searched but I have failed to re-find it.

But I did find a links for your archive.

Yup, I saw that one.. trust me, there is newer one out there, it was about 4 pages long and listed dozens of different interchange designs, man I can picture it in my head I probably read it about 2 weeks ago.. It's out there, and I'll probably search again

I never really thought about them until you brought it up, but you are right, they are pretty interesting. Those busy highway interchanges are very impressive and nice to look at. I would be a little worried about getting lost if I had to drive though one of those hehe.

Yep - I always find myself trying to figure out which road ends up going where. It's like doing a pencil maze to get to the end. Doing a pencil maze is much easier because you are looking down and can see the answer but driving around an unfamiliar crazy configuration of roads can be a complex puzzle with the added stress of traffic and not knowing where you are! I always get confounded if I miss my exit in or around Washington DC - then I am like a rat in a real maze trying to get thehell out! It is fascinating though.
