Take 301 and avoid Baltimore & DC just some traffic lights in a couple of spots that can slow you down but better then the problems on 95. Get back on at exit 104 just above Kings Dominion or stay on 301 until you reach the 295 Richmond bypass.
This is a good way , nice road..
*** BUT*** There are a lot of lights , and red light cameras on 301. Also there is a lot of congestion just south of Bowie that is a royal pain.. Now that 95 is done ( for the most part ) and they added the ex pass express lanes , it is a much easier ride...
When we do the keys from PA , we do 95 to Baltimore, around 695 and cross the Key Bridge,.,, 95 S to 295 around Richmond and back on 95.. Depending on the time of day , DC will be a breaze now.. I have done the round trip from NE PA to Richmond 5 times since December and have not gotten stopped once in traffic!
