    BP...the cure for stop and go traffic is not to avoid it, but rather leav lots of space between you and the car infront, and go half the speed of the surrounding motorists. You wont have to continuously shift and you wont stop which makes it smoother. Plus you may find that you actually bust the jam by having the row behind you continuously moving as well.

    Don't fear traffic, embrace it, and accept it as a part of having a license. There is no way to avoid waiting in a line of some sort anywhere you go...hell, we will have lines at the meet for food...

    But seriously, I'd like to meet up with y'all on 95.

    And, just my two cents, this meet only happens once a year. I hate traffic as much as the next guy but it's a small price to pay when you're rolling with your friends to an epic event. Consider this possible traffic as a one-time event.

    Regardless, I will see you guys next week.

    I've driven to and through DC probably hundreds of times now. I will have no real issue with traffic at the time I'm leaving. But if I do, I consider that a problem to solve, and I find a way around.

    What's the best route to take? I was planning to map it out this weekend...

    The best route is 95 at the right times to avoid anything heavy. Leaving from my place between 9-10 am puts me past baltimore before 12 at at DC around 1, which is a full hour before the friday traffic really starts. That said, on a Friday it won't be totally smooth sailing.

    Baltimore door to door is 2 hours for me, DC is 3 or 3.5-3.75 depending on traffic. Williamsburg should be another 2 hours or so past DC.

    I'm still undecided on route.

    Might go Parkway to the ferry and then the coast, chesapeake bay bridge tunnel, and up through Norfolk.

    Little more time, but a much nicer drive.
