Insider Tips
Rush Hour is Brutal (and Long): Avoid I-75 through Broward County between 7-9:30 AM and 4-7 PM if possible. The Sawgrass Expressway interchange and areas near Miami Lakes get particularly congested. Traffic can crawl even on weekends during tourist season (Nov-Apr).
Express Lanes Require Transponder: The I-75 Express Lanes (managed toll lanes) require a SunPass or compatible transponder - no cash or toll-by-plate option. Don't accidentally drift into them or you'll face hefty violations.
Alligator Alley Tolls Ahead: Once you leave the Fort Lauderdale metro area heading west, I-75 becomes "Alligator Alley" - a 78-mile stretch with tolls. Have SunPass or cash ready, and fuel up before entering since services are extremely limited until Naples.
Watch for Sudden Weather: South Florida afternoon thunderstorms (especially summer) can reduce visibility to near-zero in seconds. If you hit heavy rain, slow down significantly - locals often don't, leading to accidents. Pull off if you can't see.
