It depends on where in the IE you're trying to get to./from... but isn't that true of just about anywhere in SoCal?
I don't use the 10/210/60 much. I don't usually travel past Brea too often. 55/91/57/405/5/22 are the main ones I use. Freeways in LA are much worse than OC freeways. The quality of the freeway, and the signage sucks. I feel like they dont tell you about freeway interchanges until you are already changing to a freeway you don't want.

This reminds me... my disneyland pass will be expiring soon... And You probably used to work Small World huh...

My current commute isn't bad. I drive from Orange to Fullerton. However It can be a 10 minute drive, or an hour drive if I hit traffic at a certain point. Right now they are doing construction on the 55/91 interchange that I take to work, its now a nightmare all day long. If i take surface streets, major streets to get into Fullerton from my house are Kraemer (closed for construction), Tustin (closing for construction soon). They are making it impossible for me to get to work. I work graveyard, so getting to work isnt so bad, but getting off at 6am when everyone is going to work sucks...
