I’m crossing into Mexico for the first time ever next week and will drive through for a day!

The road I plan on taking in Mexico next week goes through 3 states: Tamaulipas, Nuevo León, and Coahuila. I’m sure I’ll look out of place driving a vehicle with a Florida license plate but we’ll see if it is truly as dangerous as it’s made out to be.

Don't drive around at night time. Don't go into sketchy back roads. Stay on main highways and in cities and you should be just fine. Much of Mexico is very developed and the rest is poor rural areas. Kinda like the USA when you think about it. Dont let anyone into your car. Lock your doors, Dont be flashy.
The border is the most dangerous area.
