I would also add to not "escape" a road block on the La Quaica / Villazon border crossing. I did this in 2013 when the actual bridge over the dry river was blockaded, by riding my m/c round a small footpath. Upon presenting myself to Argentinian customs, they told me that the border was officially closed due to the road block, which meant I had entered Argentina illegally and so they had to confiscate my bike on account of me importing it illegally. Took me 4 days to get sorted and a small fine..... Ironically the roadblock was lifted on the 2nd of those 4 days...
