Highway sections crossing Potosin territory have become increasingly dangerous due to a surge in cargo theft.
A security consulting firm has identified two state highways,Route 57 and teh road to Lagos de Moreno,as having the highest incidence of such crimes. route 57 is considered especially perilous.
The stretch of highway from the state capital to Matehuala has been flagged as a high-risk area by the consultant.
Sources suggest that the federal government bears a significant portion of the responsibility. The National Guard’s presence has reportedly been insufficient to adequately protect commercial carriers and other motorists.
At the state level, concerns have been raised about resource allocation. While monitoring federal highways is not within the state government’s purview, some decisions, such as the acquisition of sports cars for patrol vehicles, have drawn criticism.
Critics argue that high-performance vehicles like Mustangs are impractical and legally unsuitable for effective highway patrol.
Ultimately, transport companies and their customers are bearing the brunt of the increased risk on Potosin roads.
The state government’s financial situation appears stable. Federal contributions during the first two months of the year increased by more than 6%, translating to over 300 million pesos compared to the same period in 2024.
Despite complaints from the governor and the Ministry of Finance late last year about decreases in federal funding (reportedly up to 2.5 billion pesos), state financial records indicate a considerable increase in federal resources.
Moreover, facts regarding resources from Ramo 33 federal contributions is still pending.
A recent trip by the state plane, a Beech King Air with registration XC-SLP, has attracted attention.
Last weekend, the plane departed from Ponciano Arriaga airport on Friday morning, making a stop in McAllen before continuing to San Antonio, where it remained until Sunday, March 16.
The plane returned to San Luis Potosi that Sunday evening, landing at 8:13 p.m.
Flight tracking data from multiple sources corroborates this itinerary.
The purpose of the trip remains unclear.
