I like how you "straighten out the road" on some of those curves :biggrin:

I wonder when commercial truck drivers in Mexico will need certified training on how to drive without flipping over or going off the cliff?

Just my opinion, but living in Feniix, AZ, I have taken every route possible to our casa in San Philipe and have come to the conclusion that going down Hwy 98 to the East crossing at Calexico is the fastest route. I use to only use San Luis crossing because of the Border Patrol Stop on I8, but they are no long on I8 heading west in California.

We also take the back route to get through Mexicalli and go through Nuevo Mexicali, past the coke plant and down through the industrial area and up to Hwy 5 that is south of town. It will drop you just before the Toll road on the last traffic light going south.
