DALLAS, Feb 13, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Mexican Auto Insurance is now being offered at TotalTravelInsurance.com. Being that we are located in a state that borders Mexico, we feel it is our duty to offer these kinds of plans to our clients. Mexico is a popular and highly desired destination for road trips and holiday vacations. It is important for travelers who travel into Mexico by car or RV to be informed about this particular coverage.

Because it is not mandatory to purchase Mexican auto insurance when crossing into Mexico, many may think that their US or Canadian auto insurance will suffice. This is not true. Your Canadian or US insurance will not cover your vehicle in Mexico. In the event of any accident, big or small, the driver is responsible for any damages. The driver must have proof of Mexican insurance or be able to pay for damages. Standard Mexican procedure is to take anyone involved in an accident into police custody until liabilities are resolved. Before traveling south of the border, it is very important to have Mexican auto insurance as part of your checklist.

Travelers can access a free quote from http://www.totaltravelinsurance.com. A quote in Spanish is also accessible. A variety of coverage amounts and deductibles are available. However, it is recommended to buy coverage that equals the coverage amount of your domestic auto insurance.
