I suspect this is good advice - still - I find it depressing

You do have to get Mexican insurance, and you might consider getting the “every scrape” level of insurance.
The only tricky part is once in a while the police will pull you over, take your drivers license and say you either need to show up to court or pay a “fine” on the spot to get it back. But I wouldn’t let that stop you from renting.

Next month we will be travelling in the Yucatan - mostly around Merida. We will be renting a car (through Hertz). I have driven rental cars in Europe and Canada without issue - but I get the sense that Mexico comes with its own unique challenges. For example - I understand there are some weird laws about insurance down there.
Input would be appreciated.
