Driving the RV to BELIZE S04 E16 | Inspections, Shakedowns, Extortion in Southern Mexico - Part 1/2

Part 1 of 2: After three separate trips transmigrating Mexico (Texas to Belize) during our move to Belize, we finally got some first hand experience with Mexico's infamous mordida issue. Fortunately, we had a gopro running in our dash during all three stops on our final day of travel in Southern Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula.
Turn up the volume for a real-life, real-time account of the roadside inspection of our truck and RV by 'special inspection police'. This happened in May of 2023.

I'm building a mountain home in Belize, transporting a car collection and a plethora of other items. Had a company do a detailed manifesto for everything and place a plastic lock on the trailer that can only be open by customs in Belize.

Exactly why I am shipping my building in a storage container now instead of hauling a trailer with materials through Mexico!

I don't want to discourage anyone from driving through Mexico with this video. I'd do it again. But, it's a good reminder that driving through Mexico comes with its own stresses.

@@GettinBelizy I want to apologize to the Mexican people for sounding offensive. I was only referring to the several taxing points when hauling valuable goods across their beautiful country.. :)

[@GettinBelizy]

You get it. :-)

Shipping container from where may I ask?

This is why I literally carry zero cash in Mexico and tell them tuff cray no money for you.
