Question: I plan to drive from SF to LA on Dec 26? Can I still reach LA without 6-7 hour range on that day? How’s the traffic? I’m not from the west, so I don’t know about traffic during holiday. Will be travelling with my 1 year old, and I don’t think he can put up with 10 hour not moving traffic.

Do not drive, it will be hell with a child and chaos holiday people on the road. Weather factors like snow/ice on the Grapevine can cause it to close as well.

Leave odd hours I have always done long weekend (thanksgiving trips) to vegas/LA i leave at 3-4am and reach by 9-10

Unfortunately with my 1 year old, we cant leave at odd hour:(

Why would you drive when you can fly? Flights take less than 90 minutes.

I’ve never taken the little one for a flight. I’m scared, and I’m more comfortable with our own car and car seat etc. I asked my parent friends. They all seem to drive to LA instead of flying. That’s why I chose to drive, but I don’t know any parents driving during the holiday. Plus, I also plan to bring my little one to see the Hearst Castle on the way back, so a road trip makes more sense.

You should be fine, as long as you’re not going by major shopping areas. Most people still have the day off.
