We will take a route to get us back to I-15. 3 years ago I drove over on a Thursday leaving Vegas around 3 and getting to the Hilton at 7 with 1 stop in Victorville. Traffic wasn't bad at all, probably because I expected it to be worse. Is afternoon rush hour worse leaving the city than going in?
Originally Posted By matterhorn44 Yes, it is worse leaving during rush hour. We live in Vegas and I find the best time for us to leave is if we leave the park no later than 2pm. Any later than that and we are stuck on the CA freeways for atleast an extra hour. So we hit the parks the day we leave until about 1pm, and then get back to the car and head out. Good luck! Andrea
