P.P to SHV - best travel time

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

worst for me was about 7.5 hours on big bus to PP, traffic from the garment factories to the centre was ridiculous
longest taxi was 5 hours from PP > SHV

roads are ridiculously busy now

The problem with buses is they advertise a 7 am departure, then they leave at 7:30 after the clown they have waited 30 minutes for arrives laughing, and pick up 10 people around the city, then stop for 10 others at various places, and then stop at commission-eateries along the way.

I have had a number of people tell me that route 3 is the better run, even with the bit of a detour to Kep. However the last time I was on 3 is was completely holey on the Prey Nob - Kampot stretch.

I'll rephrase my question to say if you were driving your own car or rent a car with driver. No detours to Kep. No picking up passengers along the way, etc.
