Skills (3)

• fastest border crossing from a location best-border-crossing
  Given a place, returns US border crossings ranked by total time (drive + current wait), honouring lane eligibility (standard, SENTRI/NEXUS, Ready, FAST) and vehicle type.
• wait times by lane and vehicle type lane-and-vehicle-waits
  Current CBP waits broken out per lane — standard, SENTRI/NEXUS, Ready, FAST — and per vehicle type (passenger, commercial, pedestrian), because eligibility changes which crossing is actually fastest.
• the nearest crossing is often not the fastest nearest-vs-fastest
  Compares the closest port of entry against the one with the lowest all-in time, so a longer drive to a shorter queue is surfaced rather than assumed away.
