RT 17 north from GA to VA
Planning on traveling north from GA to VA on route 17. Any input on traveling with a MH and a small car. Any advice, or areas to avoid. Thanks in advance.

If you're passing through pick up I-95 just before Richmond Hill to avoid Savannah and rejoin US-17 at Hardeeville. Then you'll be back on I-95 north of Ridgeland and back on US-17 south of Yemassee. I've gone as far north as Huntington Beach SP and it was a good drive. Looks like the cutoff around Myrtle Beach on the Carolina Bays Parkway (SR-31) would be good.
At Ridgeland where 17 dumps you back on I95 turn left, you will stay on the old 17 to Yemassee and off of I95. This past week with everyone going home from Florida to do taxes I95 north has been a parking lot. 95 goes from 3 lanes in GA to 2 lanes in SC and it is a headache. Staying on 17 will keep you out of it for 33 miles.
