I'm in a fairly rural area, On any way I need to commute, its all 55mph roads, but one has lots of slow and turn or stop points so I choose the one with the most long stretches of drives between stops and turns etc.. to get to work, 30 miles, I back out of the driveway and drive to work, i have 1 stop sign and two slow and turns, till I shut the car off.. on the way home I can get home with no stops, all slow and turn, so It's the best route for me.
Stuff to consider for your drive.
