Reply to comment by Hillbl3 in I'm going to be driving back from D.C. to Ontario, and will be looking for a hotel room about 3-4 hours into the trip. Should I go I-70 to US-219 (staying in either Clearfield or Altoona) or US-15 to I-180 and stay between Selinsgrove and Williamsport? by MikeJeffriesPA

We'll be taking the Metro to Bethesda, MD (that's where our hotel is) and then driving out of there, should I expect the same kind of issue as far as traffic?

And thank you for the heads up, should I aim to just have dinner in Breezewood, since we'll likely be crawling through there anyway?

I can't say you will or you won't have issues, just be aware there is the very large variance typically associated with rush hours that the roads can just barely handle. And there will be a lot of people on every route out.

While Breezewood certainly has places to eat I cannot endorse monetarily rewarding the tomfoolery that has led to it's continued existence.

Haha fair enough, thank you.

We're eating at Ambar Capitol Hill for lunch, so the plan is to eat enough that we won't even want dinner until late. I'm also generally fine with traffic, I've done a lot of Toronto driving in my life, so as long as i know what to expect and can plan accordingly, I should be good.

But I get what you're saying, plan for up to 4 hours of driving, traffic could be a nightmare.
