AAA projects nationwide that 43.8 million travelers will head 50 miles or more from home over the Memorial Day holiday travel period of May 23-27.
Some 38.4 million people are driving to their weekend destinations. AAA said the best time to be on the road is before 11 a.m. Friday morning or after 8 p.m. Friday. You should be in your car by 1 p.m. Sunday or wait until 8 p.m. Monday for the return trip.
