Trending: Smugglers Use Migrants to Drive Other Migrants from U.S. Border
by BOB PRICE 18 Oct 2022
Texas Department of Public Safety officials report an increasing number of cases where human smugglers use migrants to drive their transport vehicles. The move is seen as an increased danger to those being smuggled and innocent drivers on Texas highways.
Texas DPS spokesman Lt. Christopher Olivarez told Breitbart Texas that troopers are seeing more and more incidents of human smuggling where the driver is a foreign national who is also illegally in the United States.
The trend increases the danger to Texans on roadways in addition to the migrants being smuggled.

“These drivers appear to be less experienced and are placing themselves in dangerous situations, including high-speed pursuits,” Olivarez told Breitbart. “Add to that, their unfamiliarity with the local roadways and traffic rules and customs.”
Lt. Olivarez tweeted several reports over the past few weeks as examples of the growing trend of migrants smuggling migrants.
