    We are leaving tomorrow for the drive down 5 from Petaluma. I used to have a great list (from LP of course) and I can't seem to find it.

    Thanks in advance :)

    KFWB 980 AM does traffic on the one's (every ten minutes). They don't offer it when Pro Football is playing (they broadcast games), and they are also the Dodger's station, so no traffic during the games.

    KFI 640 AM does traffic at the top and the bottom of the hour, and around 20 and 50 past, depending on when the Talk Show takes a break.

    These are the three I know of, KABC 790 also does traffic at the top and the bottom of the hour.

    We will also be using a tip oc_dean gave previously about a frontage road back to the freeway from In and Out in Santa Clarita, as well as all of Darkbeers information and tips for DLR :) Now I'll add berol's information to our laptop :)

    Our DLR vacations are a breeze now with all the information LPers are willing to share ;)

    We are off in a couple of hours>>>wheee!
