Interstates should be clear. I'm more worried about a traffic jam in Atlanta

From where? From Greenville it's faster to go 95 anyways.

It takes almost the same amount of time to go through Jacksonville up 95 to 26 as it does to go 75 through ATL. DO NOT take 95 to Daytona then through Orlando.
Take 95 to 295 to I-10 W. then take hwy 301 south to Ocala then 75 S the rest of the way

Is it still a speedtrap?
There's another small speedtrap town too, correct?

301 off of 10W to slant down to I75 further south is no faster than driving 80mph on 10W to I75S. Your best average speed on 301 is no more than 40-45mph and that's catching the lights in your favor not to mention a more frustrating drive especially on a Friday afternoon.

While you slow down to 35 in little towns like stark and Waldo, it's 65 mph in between the towns

Exactly! I've driven it many times, but it only takes me 20 min more than going through Atlanta. And that's based on not being caught up in Atlanta traffic. 301 is 4 lanes most of the way, but watch out for the two speed traps . Drive not even one mph over the speed limit. There used to be full size billboards warning drivers about the speed traps. I've not made that trip in 7/8 years.
