I realize that most Floridians probably don’t drive to Mexico. It’s entirely too easy for us to hop aboard a cruise ship and make our way to Mexico after a few other stops and a day at sea. However, there are people who step off that cruise ship, and then had to the nearest place they can find to rent a car or moped, envisioning seeing “the real Mexico” on their own. And you can’t get much more real than a Mexican jail, which is where you’ll end up if you get into an accident and you don’t have Mexican auto insurance! Your policy that covers your vehicles at home in the USA or Canada isn’t valid in Mexico, and if you can’t pay for damages you’ve caused in an auto accident, you risk being put into jail! Why risk it, when you can plan ahead and buy a Mexican auto insurance policy online before you leave home? Unless your idea of the real Mexico includes seeing the interior of a jail? In that case, carry on.
