On a typical Thursday between 4 - 6pm, how long does it take to get from Cow Hollow area across GG Bridge to Tiburon/Mill Valley turn off? Working Mom needs to get in and out of City before missing meetings on the one hand and cub scouts on the other. Can she do it? Thanks!

Depends on how well/fast she can weave in/out of traffic

I travel across the GG every Tues and Thurs (need to be at Dominican University by 6:00). I come from South San Francisco and leave work around 4:15-4:30. The traffic is brutal all the way to the Central Ave Exit. I ride a motorcycle and that helps tremendously. The few times I did drive my car I left work around 3:30 and was able to beat the horrible traffic and I would say it took about 1.5 hours. On my motorcycle it takes me about 45 minutes to 1 hour to get from South SF to my exit.

Some days the traffic flows at a decent rate and some days it crawls...never predictable.

Ugh the worst travel time, especially for that area.

The sooner the better and pray for no accidents.

This is the worst time of day to drive through this area, and traffic can be rather unpredictable. I recommend staying on side streets as much as possible. Turn onto any of the access roads to Presidio Parkway (Lombard, Richardson, Marina) at the last signalized intersection (study Google Maps) to avoid the worst of it. While cutting through the Presidio sounds tempting, note that the on-ramp at the Golden Gate Bridge toll plaza has a stop sign and no merging distance, making it a challenge to use with heavy traffic.
