    Better to run 65 through Nashville or grab 64 to lexington then 75? Lexington is 35 miles longer but avoids Nashville (@7:00am) and Monteagle.

    Briley Parkway is also labeled 155 and yea most definitely use that. Speed limit on it is 55 mph and the little bit I’ve used it I’ve seen patrol so just be mindful of that. You’ll be alright.

    Briley Parkway is TN 155. I would skip TN 155 and stay on I-24. 155 gets backed up just like the other roads. 155 is EVERYONE'S "secret" shortcut.

    Yeah, and Nashville Metro Police will nail you around Opryland if you're speeding a little.

    At least it’s a Saturday. I’m leaving here in a few min. Hoping the holiday traffic worked itself out yesterday.
