Some of us buy it from Elena Bretts in Ensenada. One day or more...whatever you need.

Would love to hear what insurance company that is and IF anyone has actually had to use the insurance NOB. And how it went, of course.
This assumes US plated vehicles with a US driver's license, correct?

The company is in Texas, I believe, and the name is "National Unity."
That should give you enough info to research it further.
Fortunatly, I haven't had to test the policy, but if asked by CHP, I have insurance.
Yes. US plated cars, currently registered, and a US license.DaliDali - 4-12-2012 at 03:28 PM
Most states require you to have and prove, insurance for registration renewal.
If you do the "Elena Britts" solution in lieu of a US policy, what are you doing to keep your stateside registered vehicle.....registered?
I also know that if you allow your US policy to lapse, that company will notify the appropriate DMV of such lapse in coverage.DENNIS - 4-12-2012 at 03:53 PM

Once you have a car registered in Baja California, you can get insurance issued in Mexico. Most of these policies include some coverage in the US,
for any length of stay, mostly using National Unity as the US insurance.
My latest policy, from Seguros Atlas, includes full coverage in the US (not Alaska) and Canada directly from Atlas's own US company, so it's a single
policy and company for all three countries. More on car insurance for Mexican cars: http://www.sanfelipelife.com/post/Insuring-your-Mexican-regi...
