How about the "round about" just on the North side of Boston? I think
three express ways come into it. No stop signs and no stop lights. You
best be in the proper lane at the proper moment, or you either turn
where you don't want to, or you won't be able to turn at all. It was
pretty much OK during the day, but rush hour was an experience.

I remember stopping at a red light and having a kid pass me on the
sidewalk. (in a car)


If you are talking about the RT 60/107 Rotary, I concur. It's been
voted the worst intersection in the greater Boston area by the cabbies.
I used to commute through there every day. On three occasions, I came
within inches of T-Boning a car that failed to yield right of way. Two
of these cars opting not to follow the traffic laws were cops. Just up
the road (on 107) there was a sign that read, "Obey signal. Wait for
green."

I did find that the Boston traffic was great practice for driving almost
anywhere else. (Center of Doublin, left side of the road, rush hour:
no problem.) Finishing up my private at BED (Hanscom Field) prepared me
to fly just about anywhere that's busy, too.
