🎯 Key Clues for Mexico

These are the fastest visual identifiers — things you should look for in the first few seconds of a round.

1

Speed bumps ('topes') have their own warning sign and are absolutely everywhere — unique to Mexico at this scale

2

MEX federal highway signs use a distinctive shield shape with 'MEX' written inside

3

Extremely diverse landscape: Sonoran desert in north; tropical jungle in south; highlands in center

4

Colorful murals and folk art on buildings — a strong Mexican cultural visual

5

Taco stands, michelada signs, and lucha libre posters visible on roadside storefronts

➡️ Drives on the Right

Mexico drives on the right side of the road. In-game, the Google camera car is on the right side — so oncoming traffic comes from the left. This is the norm for most of Europe, the Americas, and continental Asia.
