We just drove it the week before last, and we didn't think it was bad at all. I'm just trying to remember off of the top of my head, so make sure and check a map, but I'm thinking we just took I-5 to 101, then took the Studio City exit. It was quick and easy. Now, if you haven't ever driven on the interstate in CA, you might be in for a shock. There is a big difference from driving here in Oregon and down there. FAST!!!
