Briansue, you hit the nail dead on the head, corruption, graft, kickbacks, mordida that is what happens with the taxes and profits from Pemex and the various toll roads, foreign bank's own some of the toll roads and they do not care what the condition of the road is coupled with the fact that there are no scales to control the weight limit on the trailers and cargo trucks, end result is broken pavement and lousy repairs, some of the repairs are worse than the potholes.
Complaining is useless since nothing is done so best is to accept the fact that toll roads are bad, libres are good since the government has to respond, the toll roads are private property and no politico is going to rock the boat, if you ever go to the museum of art in Mexico City, there is a painting of a man siting on a chair stepping on a bone, this is in Spanish el hueso, the title of the painting is El Politico, the bone represents the mordida.
Toll roads and Pemex pay a lot of mordidas to many Politicos and government officials, so not much will change in the near future, and trying to find solutions is truly an exercise in futility, best is to let them do what they do and enjoy the vida loca.
