Ultimate Guide to Mastering Los Santos Traffic Patterns

Yo, listen up if you're tired of getting stuck in traffic during your getaways. Here's the ultimate guide to Los Santos's traffic.

First off, rush hour is a killer, literally. 4-7pm? Avoid the LS Freeway like the plague. Opt for back alleys in Textile City. Bike's your best bet, zip through tight spaces.

Nighttime's wild, expect less traffic but more unpredictability. Drunks leaving the clubs in Vinewood can screw up a smooth escape.

Downtown, traffic lights are timed. Hit one green, and you're golden for the next series if you maintain 60mph. This ain't common knowledge, so use it!

Lastly, watch for patterns in police response. After hitting a store, they swarm main drags first. Dip down Alta St, then circle back to Olympic Fwy - lose 'em every time.

Study these, practice, and you'll move through LS like it’s your own damn kingdom.

Dude, you should totally mention the weather patterns too. Rain in LS can be a real pain for handling, especially if you're not in a 4WD. That's when taking the alleyways really pays off, since you got more control even on slick surfaces. And when it's foggy? Forget the streets, hit the underground tunnels.

One of the best strategies is actually to blend in. If you can jack a common car and drive like a NPC for a bit, it's crazy how quick the heat dies down. Rush hour's the best for this cuz it's just so busy, no one even notices you.

Great guide, op. One tip from an old-timer – keep an eye on the sky too. Those police helicopters can mess up a clean getaway if you're not careful. Dip under cover where you can, use tunnels and bridges to break line of sight. Makes a big difference if you can avoid that spotlight.

Good stuff! I'd say throw in some chaos, keeps the cops guessing. Blow up a car here or there. The more unpredictable you are, the better. I know it's risky, but that's what makes it fun, right?

Cops are so predictable in this game, it's like they're scripted or something 😂. Just follow this guide and you're basically untouchable. It's hilarious watching them crash into each other while you're chilling on the Olympic Fwy overpass watching the chaos you caused below.

Haha bet this guide's saved more heists than Lester. The timing on the downtown lights is a game changer - feels like you're in one of those action movies weaving through traffic with all lights green. Just got my chrome Adder through downtown without a scratch, felt like pure magic!

Solid advice here! I've been racing the streets of LS for years and you've got it pretty much down. One thing I'd add: watch for construction patterns too. They change weekly and can mess up your routes. And always have a few escape routes in your head cuz you never know when you'll need to switch it up on the fly.
