[QUOTE="McRide, post: 1231930, member: 3697"] Carmaggedon can happen any day in LA county. If your goal is to get through the city and enjoy a tall, cool one asap in San Diego, the best, easiest way through LA is just do it. Swinging to the east may bring as much traffic as you're trying to avoid, as other have said. Backups can start in Santa Barbara but the belly-of-the-beast will be on the 405 coming down the hill into Santa Monica, then 50 miles to Costa Mesa. South of CM, it's usually wide open until Oceanside in North San Diego County where things can slow down for a bit. Reality Check: you'll be through LA in about 2 1/2 hours in the worst case. And don't forget, 405 has a dedicated HOV/Bike lane all the way. If that backs up, time to go lane splitting. If not, you sit and bake. [/QUOTE]
