Wobbly Wheel is a fork junction connecting the A379 and A38. The directions connected are Exeter-bound traffic turning off onto the A379, and A379 traffic joining the Plymouth-bound A38. The A379 was originally the A38, with the road north of here being a short section of new-build to the M5 at Pearce's Hill.

The name comes from a garage near the junction, which stood on the site of the Partridge Cycles shop.
