We are planning to drive on a Friday leaving South Jersey at approx. 3 or 4pm. Would I be better off using 301 to Richmond as opposed to I-95?
I would not recommend 301 at all. It's full of small towns and stop lights. Just make sure you hit the DC area between 9:30am and about 2pm and you should be OK. But as was mentioned, Waze or google maps will steer you around traffic.
I live in the DC area and I think google maps is better/quicker for alerting you to traffic and rerouting than Waze for the DC metro area. But both work.
Not trying to be a smart a$$ at all- but I would follow the recommendation of Waze. It will account for expected traffic and any road closures and I find it to be very accurate.
