I have noticed that some car insurance is included when I pay my tolls on Mexican toll roads. So why do I need a Mexican car insurance policy, then?

There are several disadvantages to not having sufficient toll road coverage. To begin, the insurance you receive when you pay your tolls is only valid for damage caused by the road's condition rather than an accident with another vehicle. You won't be able to make a claim since you were in a car accident that wasn't linked to the toll.

Second, this type of protection cannot substitute for a quality Mexican car insurance policy. The other reason that toll road coverage is not a suitable replacement for a Standard policy is that it goes out of effect as soon as you leave the designated road. While pay for use roads are popular in Mexico, you will not be on them even 75% of the time. Every time you exit a designated highway, the toll road insurance quits protecting you. There are no two ways about it: You need to purchase a top-quality Mexican car insurance policy. The coverage that is provided when you pay to enter the road does not protect you from the most severe trouble.

My boyfriend led a group of motorcycle riders on a 17-day trip through Mexico. I bought a Chubb Platinum policy for my BMW G310R from Mexican Insurance Store. During the trip, I crashed after hitting a pothole in a blind corner. I was uninjured mainly because of my Alpine Stars Tech Air Jacket which inflated like an airbag to keep me safe. The bike on the other hand had significant damage and was inoperable. I called CHUBB to file a claim and an adjuster met me to take photos of the bike and assist me in getting it operational. I indicated I wanted to get my bike repaired in the USA and they noted it. The bike was fully restored at Irv Seaver BMW in Orange County, California. Working with Chubb was professional and easy. I got the maximum payout in a couple of weeks. Whenever I need insurance for a Mexico trip, I'm always going to Mexican Insurance Store. Thanks!!!

Not only does Mexican Insurance Store have the best prices but they are honest and friendly with patience to explain your policy. I have been with them for three years. The price went down this third year. They could have easily said the cost was the same but were honest enough to say it went down. I have now clocked in over 100 horseback rides galloping on the beach in La Mission with Horses by Jose because I can confidently cross into Mexico with reliable insurance.

I'm delighted to give Mexican Insurance Store my highest rating. They are a brokerage for several top-rated insurers for Mexican Auto Insurance. I use them to insure my motorcycles and car when traveling south of the border with no effort. Recently, I needed to file a claim for a motorcycle tip-over in Mexico (I wasn't on the bike) and it was handled professionally and quickly. Much quicker than my US insurance. When looking for Mexican Car Insurance, this is the best and safest way to go!

Booking insurance for a trip to Mexico is so easy using their online tool. I wish they had an app so I could just click and buy a policy on the way to Mexico.

Buying my policy was fast and easy. I didn't need to use my policy, but having it during a drive where we were stopped for an inspection kept my mind at ease.
