There is a lot to visit in the Yucatan Peninsula, that is why the best way to do it is renting a car, no matter the number of people are in your party, surely all will enjoy natural parks, archaeological sites, cities and towns with out a pre-established scheduled.
Road Signs
International road signs are used in Cancun-- although the words are in Spanish, you'll recognize the signs themselves. Keep your eyes open for bicycles, three-wheeled carts, mopeds and pedestrians, and be especially careful in the traffic circles. One final word of advice: Look out for yellow signs with small mountains on them--they indicate topes, or speed bumps, ahead- sometimes immediately ahead.
Speed Limits and Speed Bumps:
In town, the limit is generally 40 km/hr (approx 25 mi/hr) and in Cancun and Playa del Carmen Hotel Zone 60 km/hr approx 37 mi/hr), with busy sections at 40 km/hr. Highways range between 90 km/hr (approx.. 55 mi/hr) and 100 km/hr (approx68 mi/hr). Speed bumps are a very popular way of keeping drivers within the speed limits, look for them when entering and leaving towns and villages. If they catch you off guard, they can knock you senseless!
If you run out of gas or break down, don't leave the vehicle; Mexico's "Green Angels," part of the Tourism Department, patrol the main roads and will lend you assistance.
