Why should you buy Mexican insurance policy?

If you have car insurance from a U.S. company, it is very important to understand its territoriality because some of the insurance companies do not cover vehicle damages or theft beyond some miles inside the Mexico border. We are not aware of any Canadian company that extends coverage to Mexico.

On the other hand, although your U.S. or Canadian insurance company may extend coverage to Mexico, the Mexican government requires that Liability insurance must be provided by a Mexican insurance company.

In the Mexican legal system, it is assumed that any person who drives a vehicle is able to pay for the damages they cause in an accident. However if the person cannot pay for the damages, by law their vehicle could be impounded and the driver could go to jail.

Considering the consequences, don’t take any chances! Buy you policy on line, have a safe trip, and enjoy your travels in Mexico.
