Don't think the traffic levels can ever be described as low (apart from Christmas Day) - it's the busiest, largest, most congested city in western Europe. Sunday mornings or other days between 10am and 2pm are your best best. Saturday or Sunday morning, or on a weekday as Gordon says between 10 and 2 pm.

Best time would be to go through it after 10pm, when traffic would be very light then. If you can't help going on weekdays though, try to plan your trip so that you drive to Atlanta at 9:30am to 10am. 2pm to 3pm is also another good option. These times during the day are when congestion is light.

Interest rates are low, the economy is good, and the future of Boston is so bright you have to wear shades. So, IMHO, it's a good time to buy property in the Hub.

The only time to drive and deal with little to no traffic is between 2am to 7am. So if you don't care about being really early to work, do it. You'll be more productive anyway.

westbound Sunday starting in the afternoon is brutal, as bad as any rush hour traffic. If you can, I'd suggest to time it to travel through Toronto on Sunday morning. Sunday morning would be best; avoid Sunday evening.

During the week, the best times are 5:30 -10:30pm. Mornings not quite so much so, you got the double whammy of bad traffic, and high downtime whenever you have to drive from Downtown to a suburb without a passenger.

From a safety point of view, the best time to travel on a motorway is from 6am to midnight. A major problem of driving at night or during the early hours is fatigue. Using a motorway is monotonous at any time but less traffic during the hours of darkness can lead to lack of focus and resulting tiredness.

As a very general rule of thumb, the best times to travel on the motorway are Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday after 8pm and before 6am. Weekends allow for a bit of a lie in – leave in the morning to avoid the noon traffic which can become statisically more dangerous, or head off after 6pm.
