Like many highways in South Texas, U.S. 59 is used by human and drug smugglers, Goliad County sheriff's Capt. Tom Copeland said. “It is a corridor from Laredo to parts north,” he said. “As far as it being a big smuggling corridor, it's easy access for them.”

So where is the Border Patrol? Don't they work at night or is it only a 9-5 job? From the report, it sounds like apprehending illegals here would be easy.

They should flood this road end of story! Make it a nice lake.

Once you get around the manned check point near Freer, it's a clear shot to parts north. Unless you have a Blowout!

The mexican driver is now one of the dead.
