mga bossings, which is the better/faster/safer route?

1. NLEX-SCTEX-Magilas-McArthur-Manila North Road all the way to Ilocos Norte then swing around to Cagayan

2. NLEX-STEX-La Paz-Cabanatuan-Pan Philippine Hiway all the way to Cagayan sa dulo, last town before Ilocos.

3. NLEX-exit at San Fernando, then Gapan-Cabanatuan-Pan Philippine Hiway?

preferably yung walang mga tricycle masyado and also di naman delikado sa gabi. will probably leave QC at 1-3am (depende sa gising). tentative trip date is April 19 or 20.

tenks!
