Safety Recommendations

Valuables: Never leave valuables inside your vehicle. Make sure it is always locked and the windows closed. In case of flat tires park in a safe, visible place. While changing the tire, avoid letting strangers get too close to your vehicle. 

Parking: Park in public parking lots or on streets where there are NO yellow lines or prohibited zones. Remember, your license plates can be retained by the police, and you might receive a fine, which must be paid directly at Payless Car Rental or authorized government offices. Also, make sure to follow all traffic laws and local regulations to avoid any additional inconveniences.

Route and Vehicle Suitability: Before initiating your Costa Rican adventure, it's important to research the route and the type of vehicle you'll need to navigate it without any issues. If you're exploring more challenging terrain, make sure you know how to use four-wheel drive and engine compression.

Planning ahead is the key to a safe, hassle-free trip so you can enjoy every moment to the fullest! If you're unsure about the route or the type of vehicle you need, feel free to ask our service agent or check directly with your accommodation.
