46. You stay off I-75 during rush hour between the FL/GA border to Orlando. Rush hour is defined as when Winnebago's with Canadian plates tailgating other traffic at 85mph driven by angry, chain-smoking Québécoise are swarming to the Land of Mickey Rat. Rush hour is pretty much year around. Take a side road.
