Driving New Jersey to Florida Best Tips and Practices Hesitant *Must Watch* NJ to FL Road Trip Guide

Hey Guys, we are getting ready to drive from New Jersey to Orlando Florida once again. Since my drive videos get the same questions asked often I figured I would share my tips and suggestions, as well as answer the most asked questions. We will be doing another vlog, driving to Walt Disney World very soon! In fact we have been very busy getting ready to leave this week but I will post more content ASAP. Hope you all enjoy and I will see you on the road next.

great tips! I agree, DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS DRIVE NONSTOP! We have done the drive from Massachusetts several times now and this past summer was our first attempt at doing it non stop. We left our house at 7:30pm on a Friday, we were on the NJ Turnpike by midnight and over the Delaware Memorial Bridge at 1:45am. This was about the point that I began to get tired. I pushed through and we got to our next gas stop at 4:30am in Fredericksburg, VA. We grabbed some food and gas and we were back on the road. There was a very serious accident north on Richmond so it took us nearly 2 hours to get through Richmond. That was when I hit a wall (figuratively!!). I had to pull off and let my wife drive for a few hours. She was exhausted too but at least she got some sleep overnight. I took over again after a few hours and we switched 1 more time before I did the final stretch between South Carolina and Orlando. We pulled up to our hotel at 8:30pm, 25 hours after we left home and we could not get to sleep fast enough. We had planned a non stop on the way home but after the drive down we agreed we had to stop. We will never do that drive non stop again. It's not worth the risk.

It’s so much fun driving from NY to Florida, we get snacks and are prepared always that’s the trick

Great tips. The drive portion of your Florida trips is often my favorite part of your vlogs, surprisingly!

The furthest I've driven myself was from Vermont to the Jersey shore. It was about 6 hours, but i was used to driving there, since I was in college at the time. I completely skip NYC bc I'd rather not deal with it (I took the Tappen Zee Bridge)
But the longest trip I've been on is when my dad and I moved across the country from Southern California to NJ in 2011, but I don't remember it too well.

THANK this was so much of good knowledge.. I am a new highway driver and going to my first trip from NJ to DC.. and this boosted my confidence.. thanks!

Hey man, nice tips. I'm going with my mom and dad to Florida for vacation and we're driving because the rental is a lot of money for two weeks. I went in 2016 by car and hated the trip back. This time I'm actually really excited because I'm 21 and I have my own car so my dad and I will switch back and forth. The GPS says that its about 19 hours from where we live which is on Hudson County. Very excited for the road trip! Thanks for the tips!

Just did the drive in April via Cape May Ferry and overnight in Kingsland Ga so my last leg to Cape Canaveral was a cake walk, enjoy the trip and be safe .
I do this road trip almost every year but it will depend on the air fare next go around also thinking of moving down to Florida and I told the wife where do we vacation if we live in Florida? Lol

When you say " condensed " do you mean "conjested " ?

Awesome video, I just came back from WDW driving from Philly suburbs not long ago and I wouldn’t trade that family bonding experience for the world. One major point you forgot to mention… the drive back home SUCKS and also beware of Virginia cops, they don’t play! Amped for your Disney vlogs!

Love the drive to FL. I leave midnight too from CT. Looking forward to your trip. Safe travels, STOP at LOVE’s!!

[jdnrotterdam]

I’m agreed with you. Flying is much more expensive than driving a car. Going with a train/public transportation is even more expensive than driving the car fro a to b. Specially when you’re with a family. And i’m also agreed with the good old roadtrip and spending time with your family. From All the vacations with my parents from when i was young I remember the car/roadtrip vacations the most. More than the flight vacations. It’s just more like a adventure. But i do think that driving in the States is more relaxed than here in Europe

We left NJ at like 8:30PM and made the drive nonstop. We arrived at pop century at like 1 pm I believe. Wasn’t bad at all.

Your videos have been very helpful driving to Orlando in a couple weeks from DE on the return trip any suggestions for over night stay

[Angelica..S]

Going through D.C was the hardest part for me with all the traffic and people swerving around me 😂 But otherwise it was amazing! I definitely will be driving every time we go now ❤️

[robs]

We try to not travel on I95 through DC and Virginia.
We definitely pick95 back up in the Carolinas.
We try to drive at night and sleep during the day.
