Recommendations for Driving from Santa Barbara to San Diego
I need to drive midday on a weekday through the LA area enroute from Santa Barbara to San Diego. I've heard so many horror stories about the 405 that I have been studying the various internal freeway jogs one could theoretically take to avoid much of the 405. But without any knowledge of traffic patterns, I'm wondering what one recommends, other than the obvious monitoring of the road conditions along the route during the drive.
