Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced Wednesday that the Lone Star State would end controversial inspections of cargo trucks that have snarled border traffic, led to three international bridge closures and cost Texas businesses millions of dollars each day — but only at one international border crossing.“The effect of this will be at the bridge from Nuevo Leon to Texas, [traffic] will return to normal effective immediately,” Abbott told a news conference. The governor said he had made a deal with his counterpart in Nuevo Leon, Mexico, under which law enforcement in the Mexican state would pre-inspect cargo trucks heading into the United States before they reach the border. The Mexican inspections started Tuesday in Nuevo Leon.
