Beyond Panama south there is no reliable road. Impassible during the rain season and dangerous any time
the roads turn to dirt track and only a few 4wd vehicles make the passage through the Darien Gap. Otherwise
air or boat is the only way to reach south America from Panama.
Bus service through Central America can be made simpler and
safer by the
