Odds are you'd find that you would need to leave yourself time to drive when planning a commute by air, and doing it frequently. Might as well just skip the hassle of wasting hours at the airport getting bumped, and drive in the first place.
If you have some control over your bidding, you can avoid traffic. The worst of it is north of LAX anyway.

If the show time was too early or too late, I would just drive. And the nice thing with that is there wouldn’t be any traffic at 3am or 10pm.

The one advantage is that we do some of the flights, but it seems to change monthly. I'm not sure if the RJ 200 does LA-SAN anymore but the jumpseater can get left behind if LA needs an ALT.
