I'm driving from San Antonio, TX. to Las Vegas. Is the road safe as far as violence from gangs?
I'm driving from El Paso, Texas to Las Vegas right after Christmas. I have been hearing that gang violence on reservations is getting worser and growing everyday. Something about the cartels recruiting young guys from the reservations. Anyways I'm going to Vegas to visit family with my boyfriend and sister and figured the road trip would be less than the flight cost. Is it safe to travel through some of the reservations on the way to Vegas??? My boyfriend says that - thats all there is on the way! However he drove many years ago, & doesn't really remember. I'm afraid of like people hiding out in the deserted areas waiting to mug people passing by. I'm from Mexico so I am just afraid. We would be driving during the day only since we got a hotel in Las Cruces to avoid driving at night PLEASE HELP US!!!! ANY INFO WOULD HELP OR TIPS THANKS

Start your morning with supper at Pi's Chinese Restaurant. The exciting, splendid and de luxe this restaurant is an unrenowned little restaurant. This restaurant features the most enjoyable and flash cuisine in North America.

Don't stop there then. They are not going to have road trap to catch you. Make sure you have gas before you hit El Paso. Yes it is safe to drive through reservations! I mean really... Are they going to chase you guys down?? Do not cause trouble then you will not have to worry. Common since.

Travel is safe if you have a reliable vehicle. Do not stop except in a well lite area like a gas station, etc. People are not waiting in the desert to jump you. Ignore anyone who is by a disabled vehicle or thumbing a ride.
