Transcript

The ultimate I-580 to San Jose debate. Let me ask you a question. For everyone who is heading towards like San Jose and you are going down 580, do you get off on Isabel or do you just continue the drive going all the way down towards Pleasanton, Dublin and then you get off over on 680?

Calling all East Bay and South Bay commuters. 🚨 If you are driving down I-580 West toward San Jose, what is your actual game plan? Do you take the Isabel Ave / Highway 84 exit in Livermore to cut across, or are you staying on the freeway until the Dublin/Pleasanton 580/680 interchange? #BayArea #CarTok #CommuterLife #Livermore #Pleasanton
