There is book, Blood Meridian, a fictionalized account of the 'opening' of the southwest to the US. It tells me all I ever needed to know of what psychopaths can get up to when free of the constraint.
People I know with family in Mexico now fly rather than drive to avoid cartels on the roads. It's a shame.
