To quibble in a minor way:

there would be no treaties in place allowing the use of the US road system

Approximately 80 per cent1 of interstate truck tonnage on the "Pacific corridor" is currently carried by trucks registered in Mexico, under the existing NAFTA treaty.

1 Published industry opinions, neither confirmed nor refuted by official (government) sources.

California would have no difficulty entering into that treaty on the same basis as Mexico - and/or Canada(?).
