MEXICOWANDERER
Jun 03, 2018Explorer
The city driving experience I chose to dislike is Puerto Vallarta. The first left turn feels exactly the same as bumper cars at San Ysidro. Then two tunnels that have buckboard pavement. But it the crawl up the arroyo on the south side of town I despise. Suicide taxis squealing around curves. Then they dart out of those 5-star hotel entrances. When it flattens out after a 15 mile curvy climb I give a sigh of relief.
Word of advice Mex 14-D from Morelia to the coaat has become a little flaky. There have been daylight carjackings and cargo truck jackings. When Jesus has a load in his pickup he gets in front of a big rig and stays within sight. If a big rig driver sees someone forcing you over they will relay it to the SSP. Highway Patrol.
Wouldn't it be nice for authorities to create Q-ships? Hijacker see vehicle or cargo, force to the side of the highway then "SURPRISE!" rat-a-tat-atat-a-tat (Keep Dreaming).
You'll have a smooth trip. The hotel summer rates will be a surprise.
