Southbound thru TJ


Haven't been South this year, and am not sure of the Route to the Toll road. Does anyone have a map, or directions.
Thanks in advance

The key word here is - "far on the right". After the gates, go into the rightmost lane. You only have a couple hundred feet to do the maneuver.

An impossible thing to do if you're crossing at 5pm rush hour and cranky aduanero pulled you off into the left-most secondary. As a result, had do "explore" the area called Playas Tijuana - neither particularly nice nor dangerous.

The secret is (if you can) as you are on I-5 approaching the border, get into the 1st or 2nd right hand lanes......after you cross the border get into the "To Declare" lane, then make the sweeping left turn towards the customs booths trying to line up with the first or second booth on the right.

If you get pulled into secondary, as you leave just worm your way over to the far right and take the first right ramp..........use your horn!!

I know, sounds easy sometimes it doesn't work
