A dangerous intersection where far too many routes converge into a single point, especially common in New England where the routes were established before the automobile. May or may not include a rotary. Can occur on both surface streets and expressways. Partially responsible for doubling car insurance costs. Even more fun when combined with aggressive New England drivers.
I'm sorry I'm late for work again, but I always get stuck in traffic down at Hamptonshire Square, where Quossohachett Ave, Milfordbury St, Glastonshire Rd, Newbury Blvd, and Boston Pike all converge. That intersection is a classic New England Clusterfuck...
