How ever MSNBC has reported that there were 6 confirmed terrorist/criminal attacks on Mexican gas pipelines yesterday,none involved trucks.

Forgot to add that letting trucks from both countries cross the border is more likely to increase security as opposed to decreasing it.
I just want to make clear that I wasn't suggesting the explosives truck was anything more than an accident. It probably was just a reckless driver with and undafe load.

Hey, it's Mexico.

How is the trucking going to increase security? From the borders guys I've met who had worked down that way I got an impression that it's pretty poor at the borders.
