The biggest current problem hindering car tourism...

The gov't has recently raised speeding tickets to insane levels.

$500!!!???? Not too good for tourism when speed limit in

small towns along major highways is 40KPH(27 MPH)

too many SPEED TRAPS!!!!!

Got popped in Palmar Sur last year but talked them out of it.

We were warned about the tickets and warned that it is a scam and you can ALWAYS talk your way out of it by giving cash. We did not experience any problems. We always had seat belt on. We had many police check points in Jaco, Punteneras but were never ticketed. All in all the police were very nice and helpful. We did not visit towns at night due to livestock roaming free and stayed away from larger towns after sunset.

Definitely not a scam, it's law. But if you file an appeal within 10 days, you join 100,000 others in line.
