It even is unreasonable from San Jose or points south of it if one's destination is in Marin County close to San Francisco, such as Sausalito. It also depends on where north of the bay you intend to go, in other words. If you're going to Sausalito, it is unreasonable to expect to go around the East Bay from San Jose or points south of it. In fact, if you're in Oakland, the logical route is across the Bay to San Francisco and then across to Sausalito. (Somewhere north of Oakland, toward Richmond, is where it makes sense to use the San Rafael Bridge route instead.) If the destination is much to the north and also to the east of San Francisco, it's then that the East Bay route begins to make sense (if the destination is "beyond" where the San Rafael Bridge reaches 101). http://www.scu.edu/map/freeway/ Good reading: http://www.pacificnet.net/~faigin/CA-HWYS/maps-sf-fwy.html Dave Simpson
