What time on weekday mornings is traffic the worst on the 405fwy to LA?
If I leave heading to LA at 8:30am, is it likely I’ll be stuck in traffic for a long time? Are the carpool lanes just as bad?
Thank you for the answers. I am trying to leave from OC to get to LAX @ 10am on a weekday. Seems like it’s impossible to avoid traffic, I don’t know if leaving super early in the morning would be better because I hate getting stuck in traffic…
Rush hour is between 6AM and 9AM and 4PM and 7PM on weekdays. Try to avoid driving at these times. If you must, you may find relief using a carpool lane, although last week I ended up going slower than regular traffic in a carpool lane (WB SR-60@ SR-57)
