Does anyone have the url for the site that gives approximate border crossing times at the San Ysidro and Otay Mesa Garitas?

Ah, Hose
I have that one. There used to be a site that was oriented more to TJ only.
Gave pretty accurate hourly predictions of numbers of cars in each of the general areas, i.e., east, west, diamond, etc.
Thanks tho for the pickup on the thread!

Just from experience, from me / us or any regular border crosser, any source that gives a wait time is mistaken. The best and what we frecuent
crossers go by is number of vehicles. Of course you can use whatever is best for you.
Here is is one with both, can not vouche for it's acuracy http://www.frontera.info/Garitas/
How we do it is call 700-7000 within Tijuana or listen to the radio reports, unfortunatley the are all in spanish.

Thats a pretty good one. I saw it earlier but it wasn't updated very well.
Thanks for the post

Perfect! Except, unless I read it wrong, it shows traffic dated Sep 6, 2007.
Nothing current??
Thanks for the follow up tho!

We crossed today at lunch time. Traffic was backed up to where Av Revolucion forks off the border fence road.
Still only waited 40 minutes. Has good Churros. Yum! 
Also found out that my Canadian Nexus card (same as Sentri) will work at San Ysidro in far 4 right lanes!!!
