Travel by car during the New Year holidays took 2 hours in each direction. They say it's not bad. I can't judge, it was the first time I crossed the border in this way. In summer, I heard they cost 5-6 hours. The passage of the Polish side takes up most of the time. Belarusians skip it in 5 minutes.
Crossing the border in Poland took 4 hours. It's been a very long time and it's been a long time... There are a huge number of cars and very few customs and border guards. They take the documents and leave for 15 minutes .. huge queues... there is a machine with coffee and tea. There is a free toilet, clean)
I often cross the border at this checkpoint. Queues are very rare, and since I always go with my grandchildren, I don't want to waste time. Both Belarusians and Poles work quickly.

So you need to be able to "do nothing". There are no cars, but still nothing is moving anywhere. There is no inspection as such, open the trunk, close the trunk. 15 minutes of waiting for the stamp in the passport and hello Belarus. As a result, an hour and a half of standing just in front of the barrier.
At the same time, there are no trucks either, i.e. not a freight crossing. And in general, the transition is acceptable for passenger transport. As everywhere, there are many shuttles and carrying purchases for Tax free.
The Polish side is working very slowly. If you make it before 8:00, there is a chance to complete everything in an hour. Later, if you're lucky, you can defend for 5 hours ((((
The tube is tired, and if you overcome your fear and sit on the potty, then through the glass door you will see the work of the Polish border guards, well, you can keep an eye on your car in line.
I was on New Year's holidays at rush hour, that is, the Poles are very sluggish, they are far from Fins. Belarusians are cheerful, even with the uniform of customs officers they pass quickly.
The launch is not every 15 minutes, but once an hour.They stood for 5 hours and were eventually turned around because the car was American from the factory with red turn indicators.and there are no others on this model!!despite the fact that I drove it before in rp! and there were no problems!
I don't even know how to rate it. In March, I passed both borders in 35 minutes, and on December 3, 6.5 hours, that's how it is.

The border was crossed on January 9th. They stood on the Polish side for 3 hours, the Belarusians missed it in 20 minutes. I do not know what the Poles were doing, but it seemed that they were just "pulling the rubber".
It is worth visiting a local celebrity: a toilet with a transparent door

The Poles are dragging it out on purpose. In addition, do not listen to a stupid person at the entrance, choose for yourself where to get up in a taxi free or in a regular one.
