Just a hint for those of you driving down.
Atlanta is not fun during the day. Recommend NOT taking the bypass/loop around. Stay on I-75 and go through downtown. The bypass has as much traffic or more and all the trucks are mandated to go around. So driving through the city is best.
As long as you're not solo (It's the carpool lane) just get in the left lane and keep up with the traffic in front of you.
As far as Nashville, it's a series of exits and splits to stay on I-24 so be alert. And I've had just as long if not longer delays in traffic there than Atlanta.
I wish I could suggest an alternate route that misses Atlanta but there really isn't a good option.
There's a saying in the SE. Even when you die and go to heaven they route you through Atlanta first.
And yes, I-4 in Orlando is a mess undergoing massive updates.
