I HAVE BEEN TRYING (UNSUCCESFULLY) FOR SEVERAL WEEKS TO FIND A MAP OF MEXICO THAT HAS THE NEW HIGHWAYS (CUOTAS?) SHOWN. I KNOW FROM PAST EXPERIENCE THAT THE SMALLER HIGHWAYS ARE JUST TO NERVE WRECKING. DO YOU KNOW IF THERE IS ANY WHERE THAT I COULD GET MY HANDS ON THIS TYPE OF MAP. DOES THE GOVERNMENT EVEN PRODUCE ONE? I APPRECIATE YOUR HELP.
