<p>Is traffic bad and are the roads hilly or ****ty lol? </p>
<p>Im thinking of bringing of my stick car but if it has traffic or really hilly ill jsut bring my automatic.</p>
<p>Hills…in Davis? lol</p>
<p>I don’t know where you live but majority of the ride to Davis or the bay area from SoCal is all farmland. It’s miles and miles of just straight road with a nice view of cows & poop. hahaa. It’s an easy ride to be honest no hills in Davis and all flat roads on the way there.</p>
<p>I live in Sacramento.
Davis is not bad to drive around. It’s very flat. Downtown Davis is on a grid system so it’ll be stop and go with the signals and you’ll have a lot of pedestrians and bicyclists.
Freeway traffic is not bad. I-80 by the Yolo Causeway (basically a really long bridge) from Davis to Sacramento can back up with traffic but that normally happens around rush hour.
Sacramento freeways will back up during rush hour and it can get bad but it’s very manageable.</p>
<p>^^^how is rush hour like? like is the rush hour going towards Sac in morning and going out of Sac in the afternoon?</p>

<p>someone explain to me why I 80 is so praised!</p>
<p>@Helpmepleasee
because it’s how people from davis can most easily go to sacramento or the bay area</p>
<p>haha awesome. thanks for all the inputs hella!</p>
<p>Generally rush hour is bad both ways. It’s because of the way the freeways connect.</p>
<p>Really if you’re driving into Sacramento from Davis, traffic will be slow until you get onto the Causeway. It’s because 80 goes from 5 lanes to 3 so there’s a lot of merging and lane changing. Though, even with heavy traffic the causeway moves pretty fast because there’s not a lot of lane changing on it.
I’m not too familiar with Highway 113 but that will connect you to I5N</p>
<p>@Helpmepleasee
I80 is the east-west freeway here. It connects “the middle of nowhere” to SF, Sacramento, and the Sierras. 80 will also take you to I5 where you can head south to LA.</p>
<p>Traffic is bad (but not “LA, six lanes each way” bad) from about the 680 to the causeway during rush hour, but it improves quite a bit here and there. Where are you thinking of commuting?</p>
