Detroit Area Insider TipsThe Inside Scoop From Seasoned I-75 Travelers
Traffic & Timing: Avoid rush hours (7-9 AM, 4-6:30 PM weekdays) at all costs - the corridor gets brutally congested. The "Downriver" stretch south of Detroit can bottleneck badly. Construction is practically year-round; check this website before you go.
Key Trouble Spots: The Ambassador Bridge exit (Exit 47) - trucks everywhere, lane changes can be chaotic. The I-94/I-75 interchange - stay alert, it's a major merge point. Zilwaukee Bridge (north of Saginaw) - watch for sudden slowdowns.
Speed Enforcement: The Michigan State Police are active on this corridor. Speed limit drops from 70 to 55 through downtown - they will ticket you. Watch for sudden speed zone changes.
Practical Advice: Gas up before or after Detroit proper - prices are usually better in the suburbs. If you need a break, Birch Run (Exit 136) has a huge outlet mall with clean facilities. Keep right except to pass - Michigan drivers take the left lane seriously. Winter Driving. Snow/ice removal is good on I-75 itself, but conditions can change fast. White-out conditions possible near the bridge crossings.
