I deserved to be pulled over last month when I was in Tecate. As I was coming into town from the Ensenada road, winding down the final stretch into
Tecate proper where you make a hard left by an OXXO. There was a billboard with a women's breasts prominently displayed overhead. I peaked at it for
one second and I blew thru a stop sign and immediately thought, "oh crap, I'm getting pulled over". Little did I know my wife's wrath would be
harsher than a police stop.
Seriously though, it was a mistake and I was embarrassed I made it. There wasn't cross traffic at the stop sign, it was just a stop sign randomly
placed....
Just a reminder to always be paying attention to the road and not breasts.  |
yeah that billboard will get
ya everytime!

Dude! That was the one!!!!!!!!!! Thanks.

Diana,
I think that is a great idea. Some great minds have done that and set a humane and caring example to follow....

But not for dogs which is why someone posted here a while back that they were pulled over for and heavily mordidad. Their dog wasn't in a seat belt.
That was in Tecate.

BAJA GRANDE 1 TECATE POLICE 0!
In 2007, my Baja Grande event and all 15 Jeeps were kicked out of Tecate by the Police there. We literally stopped traffic going into and out of town
near the Glorieta (Traffic Circle) because one of the Jeepers 'slowed' before making a turn. He hesitated because of the Police behind him. We
didn't pay any Mordida, because once one Jeep got pulled over, the rest of us used our radios and returned to help him out.
The Police got freaked when he saw so many Jeeps stopping in the middle of the main thoroughfare that he couldn't shake us down! BAJA GRANDE 1
TECATE POLICE 0!

Baja Grande Tecate Crew
Here we are - the Tecate Police never saw us coming!
Jeeps aren't known for their creature comforts, but they sure are fun!
Parked at La Rumorosa on our way to Night 1 in San Felipe.
Easy does it!

A close friend of mine attended a meeting in Rosarito just recently where the Mayor of Tecate was in attendance. He is aware of the problem in Tecate
with the Police and mordida rampage going on. They are working on a plan to curb it (hopefully stop it, right....). I will follow up when I find out
more details, but it involves the police department photographing all officers in Tecate and distributing them so those involved can be immediately
identified.
I'll keep you all posted as I learn more details.

cops working the line at the boarder lighting up cars.
I guess I was lucky. Every one told me that the croassing at
Tecate was very fast. Well i waited almost 3 hours.
I did not know that they only have two lanes. I thoght that Otay Mesa was bad. When I fanally got to the crossing I was
gruffly asked for my papers. and then the guy went off asking me where I was coming from and why am I crossing here and not at San Ysidro. When I told
them that various people had advised me that this way was faster he gave me
a sideways look of disbelief saying we only have two lanes here! You believed peoples heresay about where to cross?He was getting more peeed by the
minute. He did not so much as
just glance at the inside of the car. Checked nothing and
believed my heresay that I was bringing nothing back from
Mexico but fish. The things some people will believe!
I for one will not be back in search of a quicker way to cross.
I think I will go the SENTRI pass route. |
Why is it so often it is OUR custom guys that are rude and rarely the Mexicans?
Dogs are not our whole life, but make our lives whole.

That's just your wrong assumption. The Mexicans have their good days and bad days as well.

It's a cultural thing.
Mexicans are nice people.

The Mexican Cops always have a smile when they ask to settle the fine right on the spot.
