Almost seems as if there is almost a reduced interest by Immigration regarding the visas. We've never had to show visas at an army checkpoint. Once, they asked to see the vehicle registration. I'm not boasting, in that I was perfectly willing to pay a fine, but a few years back, after encountering a 2 1/2 hour trip from OC to the border, we realized that we had left our passports at home. Tried to no avail to get visas at San Ysidro, but no luck with our CDLs. So, faced with returning home or pushing on, we actually went down to Cabo, spent a week there, and 13 days overall, with never having obtained visas. As I said, I don't advise it, nor am I proud, because fundamentally, I believe that we should all obey the laws of other countries. However, I just have to wonder that if there are continual posts on this forum that document never having been asked for a visa. if it may not encourage others to become scofflaws.
In 30+ years of traveling in Mexico, I have been in accidents, made insurance claims, had numerous infractions, and have been in civil courts cases, and the only time that anyone ever asked me for a visa is when I applied for an FM3 at the immigration office.


But did you have one? Maybe you looked innocent...:coolup:
