The Libres are sometimes a little narrow and some do not have a shoulder, so make shure that you are a good driver, on some roads the pavement ends at the side and there is maybe a couple of feet of loose gravella and then there is a steep drop off, some times after a few pave-overs there is a good inch to four inch drop off to the gravell, if your tires happen to fall off the pavement, it iis a chore to get back up on the paved portion, should you go any furtherb off you might roll the RV down.
Some of the libres are also some of the nicest panoramic views and some can be down right scary specially on some of the mountain passes, same as some of the roads in the States, yust go a little slower and enjoy the view, and when you approach a town or hamlet, SLOW down, if you see a sign that says ESCUELA "school" there are going to be TOPES, those nasty mounds of asfalt that run crosswise to the road.
Some of the topes are marked or painted others are not, so when you see a few houses take it easy.
The LIBRES are marked with yust a number, the toll roads have the same number with a "D" at the end.
Reynosa to Monterrey 40 libre, 40D toll and Laredo to Monterry 85 libre and 85D toll road.
Buen viaje caminante.
