what time should i leave the house??
My guess is that if you have to be there by 7:30, you'd be ahead of most of the rush hour traffic regardless. Id use the estimate but plan for 7am arrival just in case. But that's just me...
Agreed. Also, if you have time for a meal there, I HIGHLY recommend Burger 21:

It takes me 1:30 minutes with a minimal amount of traffic to the turnpike exit 4. A lot depends on how far from the turnpike exit you have to go. Traffic on that road can be brutal (both directions from there).
google maps has a great feature now that can give you an estimate of how long it will take to get someplace by plugging in a date and time. It's using the all the phones with location data services turned on and spits out a fairly accurate estimate!

Stunningly accurate, if you ask me.
I drive to Philly all the time, at about that time in the morning (6am departure) and I never hit anything resembling traffic until I get off Exit 4, and usually not until the Ben Franklin Bridge, really.

Yeah, unless there's an accident or weather LOL
waze is awesome. Yet I found its need to gamify my driving beyond annoying. I uninstalled it. Google owns waze and incorporates the needed info into maps.
