Registering Scooter

Drivers are pretty crazy in Mexico, so we sold our car in Zihua. I would never ride a scooter or a motorcycle down there.

You have to be always on the defensive, no matter what. However, I have found that most drivers are far more courteous with scooters than they are with other cars.

Of course, it only takes one Yahoo ...

That's a great question and one that is relevant to me.
If I may ask what is the brand and engine size?
And if you are willing can you give approximate price you will pay?
Scooters are a way of life here in Thailand and much of Asia.
I own an old small engine Honda Click- I think it's a 110 cc.
And have rented several others.
Yes- of course you have to drive ULTRA defensively.
And even with that I have been in 4 motorbike accidents- none of which were of course my fault!

And of course here- hardly anyone has insurance much less drivers license.
And helmets are legally required but barely enforced.
Police may stop you and fine you the cost of a helmet.

Good luck
