Sadly, my command of Spanish is almost nil; however, I did go to Tijuana a few times and of course most people there are bi-lingual so it didn't matter. Wife and I were coming back from a trip down there once and we were almost out of Mexico on the way back to San Diego and we were pulled over by a Mexican motorcycle cop. Being two hicks from Arkansas, we didn't realize the rental car we were driving was not insured to be in Mexico and that was the reason he pulled us over. He kept us there for a long time. I think he was looking for a bribe. We were in a rented Lincoln and I was wearing a $20 Rolex, I had just bought on Revolucion Boulevard so he probably thought we were rich. I guess he finally got tired of waiting for his
bribe or maybe thought we were too dumb to bribe him, and he let us go.
