Default Escaping the LA basin

Tomorow I'm picking up a car in Inglewood (east of LAX) and
driving to Bishop (east of Sierras) for the Easstern Sierra
Double Century. What would be the best route out of the LA
basin for a Thursday mid-day - 110 to 10 to 15 and north to
395 or 110 to 5 to state 14 to 395? Or ???

Thanks!

110 to 10 to 15 to 395 is the fastest if you hit it before
rush hour... and if i remember rush hour starts at about
2:30 pm... go up the pass that is.

hope this helps cheers kat

If it really is mid-day, and traffic on the 405 is moving,
take the 405 all the way north to the 5, and then the 14
(which comes up pretty quick). The 405 is horrendous, but
traffic north over the hill and through the valley moves
well in the middle of the day. This is the most direct and
shortest route.
