My opinion is that it is not a safe drive once you cross the United States border. There are risks to driving in Mexico. Most rental car companies will not even permit you to take their vehicles across the border into Mexico. Also, if you use a personal vehicle you have to obtain special insurance for Mexico. Some people go and don't have any trouble but, there are others that have had something happen from car jacking, illegal drug smuggler interfernace, auto theft and other types of problems. The border towns especially have a lot of shady people there. If you choose to visit Mexico you have to enter at your own risk.. make sure you travel only during daylight hours, don't stop for any hitch hikers or strangers along the highway. It might feel like a little more safe environment once you arrive to the tourist area of the coast but still remember you are in Mexico. Make sure not to venture off into unknown isolated areas unless you are in a massive group. There is safety in numbers.
