After all, renting a vehicle to drive during her stay comes with exuberant expense. Little did she know that her bank account was about to be taken for a ride.
Uber drivers were parked along the taxi lane at the airport with signs showing the Uber logo and their availability. She approached an Uber vehicle and got in. By the time they pulled up to the curb at her brother-in-law’s house the total fair seemed exceptionally high. Generally speaking, the total charge for the drive should have been close to $30 or $40.

You wouldn’t believe what happened on her way back to her hotel.
Suddenly, a police car pulled up beside her and stopped her. Two men were in the vehicle wearing plain civilian clothes. Immediately, they asked for her passport. However, she had left it in her hotel room. Because she couldn’t provide her passport, the men became aggressive, ultimately stating that she was there illegally and needed to go to the police station immediately.

1. Language Barrier Could Be Fatal
Last spring, two college students took a bus trip from California crossing the border into Mexico. They both had the intention to party off that semester’s stress from finals. Approximately 10 miles from the American border they exited the bus and checked into a cheap hotel for the evening. Soon thereafter, they began accomplishing their goal. With the evening coming to an end and bars closing down, they turned in for the night.
Despite their hang-overs, they needed to head back to California. First, they approached someone and with broken Spanish, they asked for directions. The local resident gave them instructions and pointed towards a muddy dirt road. After a mile or so, they passed a white house where a man on the porch hollered in Spanish, “Gringo’s, you lost”? They asked the man where the border was. After the man pointed in the opposite direction in which they were heading initially, they thanked him. As they turned around to go the correct way, the man told them that if they had continued down the dirt road they probably would have been robbed and killed!
