I do that. It's the quickest way out of the city (as opposed to connectut or NY Ave to BWI Parkway). But 495 is usually a parking lot (and 95 is just barely better)
I've found the best way to get to Del Park or AC on a Friday afternoon is to take Whitehurst, to Cabin John to 270 and then use the intercounty connector to get to either 29 or 95 (the tolls are well worth it). It adds a crap load of miles to the trip, but its quicker, and, at least you're moving the entire time. I assume the same route could be used to get to ML! . . .
Either that, or sometimes, I just pretend I'm going to the gym and take off at 2:00 and hope no one notices I'm gone . . . Can be in AC by 6:00!
