I lived full time in the Chapala-Ajijic area for 7 years, and now Manzanillo area 4 years. During that time I provided information (health care, working papers, immigration, driving, cost of living, insurance, culture, divorce in Mexico, trusts vs direct deed,etc) to help people make the decision about whether the area was right for them, either full or part-time. Now living north of Manzanillo on the Pacific Coast. I live legally in Mexico.

Mexico - Car accident in Mexico

Expert: Ron Russell - 10/30/2009

Question
We recently had a car accident. We are wondering what will happen is they tell us the car can't be fixed. It has PA plates and we imported it temporarily. If we can't get it back to the border will we have to pay the value of the car? What can we do to resolve this? We have FM3 visas.

Answer
Hi Cathy, if you have a police report and insurance information you should have no problem. Return the decal and import papers to the border.

BUT I suggest you check with a lawyer. I like www.ajijiclaw.com.

Good luck, sorry I cannot provide more information,
Ron
