A plurality of instances of pre-intersection and post-intersection probe data are received. Each instance of pre-intersection probe data corresponds to traveling along a pre-intersection road segment before traveling through an intersection. Each instance of post-intersection probe data corresponds to traveling along a post-intersection road segment following traveling through the intersection. Instances of pre-intersection probe data are clustered into pre-intersection clusters based on a post-intersection road segment identified by the corresponding instance of post-intersection probe data. Instances of post-intersection probe data are clustered into post-intersection clusters based on the post-intersection road segment identified thereby. A traffic level indicator is determined for each cluster. A traffic level indicator difference is determined for each pair of corresponding pre-intersection and post-intersection clusters. Responsive to determining that at least one traffic level indicator difference is greater than a threshold traffic level indicator difference, the intersection is identified as experiencing a traffic jam.
