With 34 years in the Atlanta suburbs, all I can say is getting around or through the city can be very frustrating!
When driving the motor home we much prefer taking I-285 west and rejoining I-75 just south of the airport. Traffic is much better. We have gone straight through on I-75. The problem with a large rv is that cars are continually jumping in front of you leaving way too little stopping space. After one particularly hair raising experience we said never again!! Hence we drive slightly further on I-285.
If you go this way and for any reason miss the I-75 south exit just go a little further and take I-675 south. It will bring you to I-75 and it is a better less traveled road than I-75. We often take it by choice!!
We highly recommend using the GPS with lane advisors when driving through Atlanta!
Have a great trip!
