Hi - can anybody offer some advice on the route from Richmond Virginia to State College? I see the fastest route goes through Washington DC but it does make me wonder if that’s necessarily true. It is a big city with big traffic. But if I was going to attempt that route, when would be the best time to try to drive through the Washington DC area? 10 AM to 11 AM I’m thinking as when we would be going through that area.

There’s two other routes that are being offered one goes through Harrisburg via the 81 to the 99.

The other route is the 95 to Fredericksburg then the 66 to the 99 it looks like.

I would love some advice. I don’t want to drive windy mountain roads if I don’t have too. I don’t mind some of that but don’t want to do that for 4 hours .. I am a wkman traveling with my teenaged son so would like to stick with more heavily traveled roads.

I appreciate anything that anybody can tell me. We are going there to look at Penn State..
