Visitors BEWARE or be aware. On our recent trip down I-10 through Van Horn we decide to visit a Marfa art exhibit we had read about on the internet which is a Prada store front display in the middle of nowhere so we detoured down Hwy 90 for a short drive, after finding the exhibit and taking our pics we headed back to I-10 at this time we noticed several marked and unmarked police cars that seemed to not have paid us any attention but once we were back on I-10 we were pulled over by at least 8 officers or more at which time we were asked about our trip down Hwy 90 and if we were there to pick up drugs, we were told this is a major drug route and nothing but trouble travels down that highway. So after being detained for 1 hour and receiving TWO tickets for alleged speeding we were released so if you're going to Marfa to see Prada or the Marfa lights, the only lights you will see are RED and BLUE!
