How to read a border crossing camera
- Look for the end of the line, not the booths: what matters is how far back the cars go.
- Pick the right view: “south” and street views show the Mexican-side line; “north” shows the booths.
- Compare with CBP: if the camera looks empty but CBP reports a long wait, the report may be delayed (or vice versa).
- Right side: to enter the US, watch the cameras on the Mexican side.

Which side of the border does each camera show?
“South” views and street views show the line on the Mexican side, which is the one you wait in to enter the US; “north” views look toward the inspection booths and the US side.
