Driving to Nashville from BR. Which is the better route to take? Google maps says the distance and the time are the same.
TIA

The longer you can stay off La roads the better

The route where you're not in Mississippi for most of your trip.

Mississippi isn’t nearly as bad as a lot of you make it out to be

Just drive through Tuscaloosa at 90 mph like every Louisiana car I see on the interstate around here.

I've made that drive dozens and dozens of times.
Go 59.
Go 59.

Does mandeville traffic ever get bad? If not, go that way and avoid Jackson. 59 is an easy boring drive.

If you aren't going at least 85 mph on 55 between Jackson and Oxford you're going to get blown past. Can't speak to the average speed traveled on 59

About the same on 59.

That overpass where that bad wreck was a few months ago. Combined with end of the year beach traffic coming back

The most scenic route is the one that takes you thru Tupelo and onto the Natchez Trace IMO. I would go 55 no doubt.

TY all VM. 59 it is.
Posted on 8/9/18 at 1:35 pm to BobLeeDagger
59 is so boring
Posted on 8/9/18 at 1:36 pm to saz_1
It comes down to whether or not you're going to hit Bham or Memphis at rush hour.
Posted on 8/9/18 at 1:37 pm to saz_1
40 between Memphis and Nashville sucks, but 55 is basically vacant from Jackson to Memphis. I’d probably go that way just to avoid 20.

It’s coming from bitter Louisiana residents that feel better by shitting on neighbor states.
They’re clueless.

I can tell you that 59 in Alabama has a lot of construction on it.
