Tom Moreland Interchange, intersection of Interstate 85 and Interstate 285, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
The Central Motorway Junction – New Zealand State Highways 1 and 16, Auckland, New Zealand.

They are called the “Malfunction Junctions”, or “Spaghetti Intersections”, and they are located almost in every major city in the West. You can find the streets that end nowhere, streets that strangely allow traffic in both direction (without providing proper lanes), streets that change names more often than a communist Cold War spies.
