I'm going north through Seattle friday via I-5. Last friday it was a crawl from Boeing field to the Snohomish river, I never got out of second gear! I was about to go postal. When does it start thinning out on fridays? I'm 60 miles south so I'll leave an hour before it starts to lighten up. |
right around 2300 hours

Ugh. Friday is the worst traffic day. It seems to start earlier and end later. I exit I-5 before Seattle so can't give you a good time for traveling into or through but would guess 7 PM would be a little between people going home from work and heading back out to kick off the weekend. |

This would be a good excuse to get satellite radio, because hearing George Carlin, Richard Pryor, Jim Breuer and the like is the only thing that keeps me sane during times like that. Alternatives include: Practice some kind of Zen Transcendental Meditation Drive an M923 series 5-ton 6X6 with a ring-mounted M2HB Fly north via Kenmore Air, Horizon Airlines, etc. Walk--it may be faster Call in dead. Otherwise, PCR-00 is correct. Traffic kinda thins out by 2300. |
You can also easy type smarttrek.org And listen to KOMO 1000 traffic on "the fours". On the worst Friday nights, its usually done by 1900. The key is to have an alternative route and be aware of where the problems are. |
