In Los Cabos, BCS, drivers are seething as a critical paper shortage at the toll booth coming into San José del Cabo. spawns a colossal traffic mess. The root of the turmoil? Caminos y Puentes Federales (Capufe), the federal agency in charge of roads and bridges, seemingly dropped the ball, leading to a full-blown gridlock nightmare.
The drama unfolded early in the day when drivers queued up only to find the ticket machines out of service. “It’s an absolute mess! We’ve been stuck for hours, and there’s zero accountability. How does a federal facility just run out of paper?” one frustrated driver vented.
This oversight by Capufe has ruffled feathers not only among the locals but tourists too, putting a dent in Los Cabos’ usually sunny image. “This really tarnishes our view of Los Cabos. Is this the kind of service we can expect?” a tourist remarked, clearly annoyed.
Despite the growing chaos, Capufe has yet to make a public statement, leaving the traffic to swell and frustrations to mount. Efforts by local authorities to clear the clog have so far been in vain.
