As Frederico says, it's generally a good route, if you're going south, used a lot by those of us who have more time than money!!  In May/June and on Sundays when we usually travel through there is no real problem.  Mid-week, when all the HGVs are heading that way it might be very different.

The problem is the N12, which is a route used by many HGV's and when they're on the roads traffic is much heavier.  St Remy has been campaigning for a bypass for many years - and seems to be one of the few places that has missed out.

You could try the radical alternative, suggested by Viamichelin, of using the Paris peripherique - now that really is the road to hell, and the only place we've ever had a four hour traffic jam without moving more than 150 metres!
