im looking at taking the trip right before or right after new years...

Answer 1

There is a Mexican government website that will not only give you the distance, but also the approximate time and toll costs.  I have pasted the main link below... just enter "Nuevo Laredo" and "Monterrey" and you will get the results.  (Laredo is just across the border from Nuevo Laredo in Mexico)

FYI -- It is 223.1 kilometers, it will take about 2 hours and 20 minutes, and the tolls will be $192 pesos.

The toll roads are quite safe.  Just use the normal precautions that you would take driving in the US, plus try to complete your driving during daylight hours.

Answer 2

just take the toll road and is very safe.  it will take around 2 hrs.
