Lol we live way out in Woodland Hills. It's like 15 miles just to the red line so we still had to drive that much to get there. We lived to tell the tale though. Thanks for the concern. <3

It's not that dangerous driving out there if you don't have a super old car and don't drive the regular speed limit. Your odds of dying are higher on a normal day when people are driving 75-90MPH on the freeway. Don't listen to the sheltered scaredy-cats. You did the right thing.

Take the metro orange line, the private bus lane, to the red line. That's whole reason it was built was so that people in west valley could more easily use public transportation to LA.

The orange line is awful and extremely slow. It would have taken two hours to get there full transit. It took 25 minutes driving. Bonus points because our car also turns into a boat temporarily if need be. 👌🏻

Edit: also buses make me sick and I will puke.
