I would have to cross into the commerce zone or whatever it was called 3 miles inside Mexico, dump the trailer and bobtail out...and I hoped I would come out in one piece!

You forget - It is the Establishment politicians cracking down on us citizens, while giving a free pass to the illegal immigrant.

I think it was Trukwyfe? that recently posted about one that killed somebody in a crash, with evidence of illegal contraband, and was not investigated or charged for anything, beyond a traffic type of citation. That's memory, for you.
