Can I expect traffic on this day, on this freeway? (Orange and Riverside Counties of Southern California)?
Hi, I have a question but first let me explain the situation. I have work on December 26 I work at the tyler mall in riverside. Now on December the 26 I will be in Buena Park but will be getting a ride to work in riverside. I start work at 10:45 am. On mapquest it says it takes approx. 47 minutes to get from Buena Park to Riverside. But what I want to know is, what time should I get up if it takes me about 45 minutes to get ready for work and what time should I leave for work (taking into consideration that I will be taking the 91 freeway and it is the day after christmas so will there be bumper to bumper traffic?) I've never had to travel this far to work considering I only live down the street from my job I'll just be staying with family for christmas. So just in case that question got confusing cuz I think I made it confusing let me break it down... 1. I work December 26 2. My job is in Riverside 3. But I will be in Buena Park (where knotts berry farm is) on December 26 4. I start work at 10:45 am 5. Mapquest says it usually takes 47 minutes to get to my job from buena park but should I expect lots of traffic considering the day? 6. Also what would be a good time to leave so that I don't get there late and not too early. I would be VERY THANKFUL if someone could help me out with this since I'm already stressed about it enough as it is. Thanks! and happy holidays.

Answer 1 :
Give yourself one and one half hours of driving time to get to work, just to be on the safe side. It might be better to exit at La Sierra, turn left on La Sierra, and turn right on Magnolia, then Right on Tyler to avoid the traffic that will be on the Tyler exit. You can also exit at La Sierra, left on La Sierra, right on Magnolia, then right at the first street after Tyler (where Carls Jr is....forgot the name) to avoid the traffic that way
Answer 2 :
The day after Christmas is when they have HUGE sales at malls. I know that the area around the Brea mall will be packed, and it will impact the 57 freeway. Expect the same for other malls in the area. I would allow 90 minutes for driving, to be save. So if you wake up at 8:30, and leave by 9:15, then you should be fine.
Answer 3 :
I agree with the other two guys. You gotta give yourself double the time to get there. Especially going to Buena Park. There's so much stuff right there and it's gonna be the day after Christmas. Good luck.
Answer 4 :
You're in California, Of course you will have traffic. GET OUT WHILE YOU CAN! Disclaimer: This is not a troll answer, this is a self opinion which doubles as advice
