Gov. Abbott Rolls Back Truck Inspections at One Crossing, Others Will Continue

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott says he’s directing the Texas DPS to immediately suspend mandatory checks of all commercial vehicles crossing the Texas-Mexico border at Nuevo León upon an agreement with the governor of that state to enhance security on the southern side of the border that will curtail trafficking. Abbott said the DPS will continue mandatory inspections of all commercial vehicle traffic entering the state at other crossings until he has similar assurances of security from the governors of those Mexican states.
