Can someone tell me the correct streets and ramps to use to get to each of the three categories, i.e. SENTRI, Readylane and everyone else, at Otay
Mesa? Made the mistake recently of ending up in the Readylane zone when my passenger had only a passport. Fortunately, the guard was forgiving.

Seems like if you have at least 1 ready card, And the other have a passport, they have never questioned us. But getting to the ready lane, on a busy
day
is challenging!
When you get off Blvd. 2000 and get onto Blvd. Industrial, you'll go about 3-3.5 miles and then go underneath a bridge/gate/whatever that says
PANASONIC on it.
For SENTRI:
Turn right at the first light onto Calzada Alfonso Vidal y Planas (sign for Bellas Artes). At the second light, turn left onto Bellas Artes. JUST
BEFORE THE OVERHEAD PASS--it's a really obvious bridge you will see a car wash. There are two streets there, even though it looks like one divided
parkway. Turn into the further one, closest to the car wash. That is the SENTRI line. (If you mess up and turn into the other one, just go back and do
it right.)
For Standard Lanes:
Continue on Blvd. Industrial and turn right at the sign for GARITA DE OTAY / VEHICULOS LIGEROS. The name of the street is Blvd. de los Aztecas, but I
don't think there's a street sign. There's a llantera (tire shop) on the right side at the corner.
For Ready Lanes:
Continue on Blvd. Industrial, but head for AEROPUERTO / C. CAMIONERA. You'll continue along and then turn right for AEROPUERTO / COL. LIBERTAD.
There'll be a sign for SAN DIEGO and you'll turn right onto Alejandro Humboldt (the Negro Durazo seafood restaurant is on that corner). Go all the way
to the end of the road and turn left onto Blvd. de los Aztecas and then keep left for the Ready Lanes.
