Do you think it's worth it?

Question

Im going to T.J. (tijuana) with my parents next weekend and I was told to take the 73 toll. Is it much faster going on this road? My father doesnt think so?

Answer 1

It's a little faster, but I hate paying a toll to drive when I can avoid it.

The 5 fwy South can sometimes slow down considerably too on w/e.

It may be a good idea to bring passports. Mexico requires them if you get off a cruise ship, so maybe the border crossings are tightening up too.

Answer 2

WTF is Rissa talking about?!

The 73 toll road seems like it would be out of the way a bit. Since you are going on a weekend, traffic shouldn't be all that bad. My suggestion:

US 101 South to SR 134 West (avoid downtown LA, it's always crowded) to I-5 South to the border. If you are just going to TJ, you way wish to consider parking in Downtown San Diego and taking the Blue Line, which drops you off at the border. From there, simply walk across and catch a taxi on the other side.

Answer 3

NO! NO! NO! Girl take the 126 to the 33 to the 126 to the 101 to the 126 to WILDMAN STREET!
