You go thru the open lanes. Depending on the time of day they only open X gates. The leftish would be better but i sorta remember they all have access to the rubber glove treatment area.

Just crossed on the 6th, they made me go to the right then through the x-ray machine. I normally go through Tecate in a 33 ft 5th wheel and will go back to Tecate next year.

Cliff , did they have the construction completed yet on the main drag heading south out of town?

The construction is done ,stay right and you are along the boarder fence heading for 1st toll gate

The left hand most lane at the border inspection provides the easiest access to the X-ray machine just in case that's what they want to do. The turns can be hard to make with a trailer from the other lanes.
