What lane to the toll road ?

Tin=Can - 6-8-2007 at 08:31 PM

Last year i missed a turn somehow and ended up in town. Was there a change on getting to the toll road ? Do i stay to the right ? Thanks for any info.

If you count the left lane as #1, you want the #3 lane. You will have to merge, but that is the way it is!!

DK...Do you know where MotorHomes cross at Otay Masa??
My mirrors drag hard at the Main crossing there.

Not sure I understand Al...? I use Otay a lot and it seems pretty clear for any size rig... It's at Tecate going north that is ridiculous for big rigs!

Cross going north or south... what 'main crossing'?

DK...not sure I can describe the crossing, but about 6 lane wide and just south of Airport at Otay on top of masa. Did not see any truck lanes or trucks. My motorhome is 8' wide plus mirrors. I had to turn them in and scrap them on the 8' high steel post to get through. I had tunnel vision because of the number of things on my mind. With my luck this could have been the only lane with these post. I must find a better way. If my motorhome was 102" wide as the newer ones are, they would had to stop all traffic to extract me. There were no other large vehicles so there must be another crossing???

Don't know about Otay, but it might be similar to Mexicali East - Motorhomes/trailers in the extreme right lane. Actually have higher posts beside the lane to scan for radioactivity. Then it's straight thru secondary. The truck crossing is for commercial vehicles only.

Thank you Bob...I can see the big dogs, but there appears to be a divider between and a different entrance...is that so?
