You go through the speed traps in all three options. However, after the speed traps, the part of 301 to just north of Ocala is pretty smooth sailing. However, once you get to Ocala and south, 301 has a lot of traffic and traffic lights. The cutoff north of Ocala lets you avoid them.

Obviously, if your destination is the north part of TV it probably makes sense to just continue on 301. However, if you are going to any of the southern areas, I think it makes sense to hop over to 75.
