"Avoid Sunday afternoons to leave Maine. TRAFFIC!!!" Top 5 Page for this destination Maine Warnings Or Dangers Tip by ladyanne

Maine Warnings and Dangers: 23 reviews and 19 photos

Traffic coming and going into and from Maine is "horrific".
We always plan on driving into Maine during the Midweek, and also try to leave on Monday.

If that is possible with your vacation time, it will make things alot more enjoyable.

We have waited for periods of a hour just to get through the main toll gate or through New Hampshire where all routes emerge. And if there is an accident it can be hours extra.

Recently Maine has added an extra lane from Portland southward, but it is still a challenge.

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
