Ley De Tránsito
Reforms Go To
Commission
The fate of the
reforms to the
Ley de Tránsito
(Traffic Law)
will now be up
to a commission
made up of nine
legislators,
which are
expected to
report in the

The Struggle For
Public Safety
Mexico is
located right
next to the
country that has
the greatest
consumption of
drugs in the
world. Drug
trafficking to
the US was the
beginning of the
formation of the
powerful groups
of organized
crime. During
decades, the
narcotic traffic
in Mexico was an
activity focused
exclusively on
the traffic of
drugs toward the
US. Throughout
this period the
criminals worked
only to assure
traffic routes.

So,
What
Are
We
To
Do
Now?
Closing
the
San
José
-
Caldera
is
perhaps
a
prudent
move
on
the
part
of
transport
officials,
but
what
are
now
to
do,
go
back
to
the
old
road,
the
monte
de
Aguacate
or
the
Cambronero?
No
way,
I
think
I
will
stay
home
until
they
re-open
ruta
27
completely. |
