San Diego to Las Vegas-Stay on 15 or use 215 to skirt LA?

We're driving SD to LV mid pm on a Tues. I see 215 thru Riverside as an alternate to staying on 15 just east of LA. Distance looks about the same. Which is the best route re time and traffic. thx

I would take the entire 215 end to end rather than take 15. You are right that it's about the same but there is usually much less traffic on 215 most any time of day. It's also a couple of miles shorter.
