Travel Route coming from NE on I-95 North
I read all the posts about the speed traps along 24 and 301. Don't want to travel these roads as we may be doing this part of the trip in the dark. Just seems it may not be the safest route in the dark.
Has anyone taken:
I-95
I-295
I-10 W all the way to
I-75 than south to
466A

Mapquest says the mileage is higher but travel time is just about the same. Please let me know if you have uses this route and what you think. Thanks.
I have traveled that exact route on reccomendation from a friend in TV. It takes about the same time (give or take a few minutes) as the 301 route. It's a coin toss but if I were driving at night that would be my choice. And remember 466a has frequent radar on it so take it slow there.
