In general, it is true that it is less dangerous to drive on rural roads than it is to drive in heavy traffic, simply because there is less danger of colliding with other vehicles. But if you drive badly enough, you can still collide with a tree, while driving on a rural road.

How busy are the roads driving from las Vegas to Los Angeles on a Sunday at 6 am and driving back to las Vegas at 830 pm Sunday night?

Sunday is a heavy traffic day between LA and LV, but the roads aren't too busy at 6am on Sundays. The best resource I have found for the LA to LV commute is www.bigtraffic.com. This site gives real time traffic updates for the LA to LV drive including tweets from people currently driving it. Hope that helps.


Should you use cruise control when driving in the mountains?

YES.... but you have to be prepared to boost or low your speed depending on the hill, i personally think its more work than driving regularly. NO, never use it in heavy traffic, when it is raining, when towing, in the fog, on hilly terrain, or when there is ice or snow on the road. Use it on 4 lane roads with light traffic.
