Driving a rental car in Costa Rica:Any foreign visitor aged 18 or older with a valid driver's license from his or her country can drive a car in Costa Rica for 90 days. However, many rent a car companies require that you be older. Proof of entry to the country is required for a police officer to accept a foreign license, so always carry your passport when you drive. Costa Rica uses the metric system, and all road signs showing distances are in kilometers (1.6 km = 1 mile). The speed limit on a highway is 100 km/h. In urban areas the maximum speed varies from 40 to 60 km/h.

Safety belts are required by law. Road conditions vary, and are normally bad by international standards. Bumps and holes are often present with no adequate warning. Traffic in San José during weekdays is very heavy. Streets in downtown are narrow. Gas stations with 24 hour service, tire repair and snacks are widely present in urban areas. Rural areas normally have adequate gas supplies, although not on a 24 hour schedule. Unleaded gasoline is available, it is called "Super". Normal gasoline is leaded.
Many destinations require off-road vehicles, especially during the rainy season. Road conditions vary, so always ask your car rental / hire agency about current conditions. Minimum insurance from the state controlled insurance monopoly is required by law regardless of what other insurance you may carry. All circulating vehicles must be insured against personal injury to third parties by law, but there is no need to insure against material damages to other cars. This means there are lots of drivers out there without insurance to cover the cost of a crash. Not having insurance can be a very expensive decision, even if it's not your fault. You can purchase extra insurance, or it is possible that your credit card my give you additional coverage.

Car Rental Questons by Site Visitors
Is it possible to hire cars with inbuilt safes for personal documents and
cameras?
How are rental cars identifiable to thieves? Of do they just spot
'foreigners'?
Thank you,
Michael
Hello Michael,
Thank you for writing to our website, 1costaricalink.com . We are not aware
of any rental car companies that offer a built in hiding place or secure
document compartment. Most rental cars are pretty standard, although you
can always hire a car and driver, that way the driver would be your security
provider.
Some rental cars are obvious to thieves, as that is their business, some are
not, but you, as a tourist are always obvious to the thief. Even if you
weren't a tourist, just a foreigner, they would see you as a potential
target. The thieves really don't care if you are just visiting or live in
the country and in reality, they don't care if you are a foreigner. It is
usually that the tourists, leave their luggage, etc., for all to see.
There are many scams that thieves perpetrate, as you leave the rental car
agency. However, all this said, there is little to worry about if you are
aware of all this and frankly there is allot less crime in Costa Rican than
in the US or other foreign countries. It is almost always crime of
opportunity and without violence.
If you do not make it easy for the criminals, nothing will happen to you.
Most people visit Costa Rica and have a wonderful, crime-free vacation. Do
not be consumed with fear, just be pro-active...thanks again for your
inquiry...
Since most people fly into the San Jose International Airport, read
info here about the sites, things to do, maps & tours in San Jose.
And, have a great time throughout beautiful Costa Rica!
If you're visiting Cyprus, try Paphos car hire at Paphos Airport and downtown Paphos.
