What Should I Do If I Have a Car Accident in a Rental Car in Mexico?
If you have an accident in a rental car in Mexico, stay calm and prioritize safety. First, ensure everyone is safe and call 911 for medical help if needed. Do not move the car. Immediately contact your rental company and your insurance provider. They will guide you on the necessary steps, which typically involve waiting for an insurance adjuster to arrive at the scene to document the incident.

What Should I Know About Refueling a Rental Car in La Paz, Mexico?
In Mexico, gas stations are full-service; an attendant will pump the gas for you. It's customary to tip the attendant around 10-20 pesos. Always confirm the pump is at zero before they start. While some stations accept US dollars, paying in Mexican pesos is recommended for a better exchange rate. Keep small bills handy for payment and tips.

La Paz Car Rental & Road Trip Guide

Essential tips for driving in La Paz, Baja California Sur - from license requirements to local road rules

Can I use my US driver's license to rent a car in La Paz, or do I need an International Driving Permit?
US citizens can legally drive in Baja California Sur with a valid US driver's license—no IDP is legally required. However, most rental agencies will accept your US license with a passport. If you're from another country, an IDP is strongly recommended. Note: Your US auto insurance almost certainly won't cover Mexico; the rental company will push their Mexican liability insurance ($25–$50/day), which is mandatory at most agencies. Skip their CDW/LDW waivers though—they're overpriced. Get a quote from a Mexican insurer like ABA or GNP before your trip and save big.
How much are toll roads in Baja California Sur, and how do I pay them?
The main highway in BCS (Highway 1) is mostly free, but the cuota (toll) road between San José del Cabo and Todos Santos costs roughly $15–$20 USD per segment. Cash (pesos or USD) is accepted at all booths. Credit cards work at some tolls but cash is safer. Budget $30–$50 round-trip if you're driving the Los Cabos–La Paz corridor. Pro tip: The free scenic route via the east cape is longer (adds ~45 min) but stunning and practically empty.
Is driving in La Paz safe? What about car theft and crime?
La Paz is one of the safer cities in Baja, but petty car crime happens. Never leave valuables visible in the car—break-ins are the #1 tourist annoyance. Park in secured lots or your hotel's lot, especially at beaches. Avoid driving at night on isolated stretches (e.g., north of La Paz toward Todos Santos)—roads are dark and wildlife collisions spike after sunset. Overall: drive smart, lock up, and you'll be fine. Violent crime against tourists in rental cars is rare.
What's the minimum age to rent a car in La Paz, and will I pay young driver surcharges?
The minimum age is typically 21 years old at most agencies (some locally-owned lots may require 25). Drivers under 25 pay a young driver surcharge of $10–$25/day—this is non-negotiable and often poorly disclosed upfront. At 25+, you're exempt. If you're under 21, your options are extremely limited; call ahead. Senior drivers over 70 may face no issues in Mexico (unlike some EU countries), but verify with your rental company.
What type of gas does Mexico use, and will I have trouble finding加油站?
All rental cars in Mexico run on Magna (regular, 87 octane) or Premium (91 octane)—your rental will specify which. Gas stations are plentiful along Highway 1 and in town, but can be sparse on backroads. Fill up before heading to remote beaches or the east cape. Most stations are PEMEX (state-owned), some are BP or Shell. Credit cards are accepted at ~80% of stations but always carry 500–1000 pesos cash as backup. The 'full-to-full' policy is standard: receive the car full, return it full (or pay refueling at agency rates, which are steep).
