This isn’t really an optical illusion, just an image mismatch on highway I-80 between Lincoln and Omaha, Nebraska, but it looks really freaky! It makes my head hurt.

Here’s another example, that caused a major misalignment in Phoenix: View Placemark / Google Earth
The one above is just crazy.
On the one pooms mentioned, if you go right there are some really cool ghost planes in a major airport mismatch, and further right the mismatch makes for a very cool looking fuzzy strip through the middle of a large, full parking lot. If you go still further right, you will get to one of the original Missed Bridges.
that misalignment goes on for miles and miles. Look what I found way off to the east: View Placemark / Google Earth
Yes, and slightly to the east of that, is another case of mismatched roads: View Placemark / Google Earth I think they must have used an automatical algorithm for matching the images, and it made the two mistakes that I’ve posted, resulting in a major misalignment.
it is really freaky. google map always have the error.
Looks like this one has been fixed! (Probably quite a while ago, going by the date of the last comment)
