    Does the interstate that takes 15 minutes actually take 15 minutes? If that interstate is crazy congested, the state highway might actually be faster. Or maybe this is some rural part of America, I don’t know.

      That’s how I found it, actually. We were new to the area (and it is rural), and there was a rock slide on the interstate that blocked traffic for a couple days, and I needed to get to a mechanic that was over there. Had to find an alternate route. Never looked back since. Lol.

      But yes, unless there’s a rock slide, wreck, or they’ve closed it for construction, it generally takes 15-20 minutes.
