the Pan-Americana as well being, I'd suspect, the most official border crossing. I've only crossed twice, both times at Tapachula - also every time I was there I got around by hitching rather than bus so I got a different (not better, just different)perspective I think.
yeah we got a bus which dropped us at the checkpoints. walked across la frontera and picked up a bus across the other side. it did all seem rather chaotic and disorganised but then this was my experience of most of the borders we crossed in latin america.
