Avoid driving in Perú and in case you do it, please note that police in city or highway checkpoints can only ask for 3 things: driver's license, registration and insurance (soat). If those are good, they have to let you go immediately. Any extra talk is likely a scam. Don't be afraid, just be polite and say NO. Speeding tickets are only sent by mail to the car owner along with photo evidence from the speed camera, which are usually mounted on pedestrian overpasses. Police cruisers do not have speed radars.

Besides the crazy driving, did you feel safe? I'm planning on visiting and we have a small child so I'm debating if I should rent for ease of transportation or just taxi it the entire time

Safety wise i would say peru probably one of the safest places in all latin america the drive is durable do not get a small car the road is really bad some part of it unpaved my hilux did perfect DON'T DRIVE AT NIGHT there's literally truckers would park and turn off the light when there's a traffic jam i almost ramed one on the way DO NOT EXCEED 100KM or 60 miles in speed even if there's empty road they have radars and police will try to take advantage of you they did to me i gave them about 100 dollars to let me go because i went over speed limit if you didn't EXCEEd the speed and they claim that you went over just tell them to give the ticket because they are not telling the truth it is an adventure i personally wouldn't do it again because the roads and how crowded lima can be option b if you can have someone drive you there and stay with you and bring you back or if you like me just do it and good luck

I don't recommend getting a car in peru roads are super congested and can be very dangerous i only got the car because i love this type of vehicle that we don't in the usa but if you have to do and want to go to paracas for example get an suv and be super careful you will see stray animals on the way truckers taking break in the middle of the road getting passed on the shoulder and even getting scammed by police 🚔 i ended up paying about 200 dollars wrongfully to the police because they claimed i was speeding which i wasn't i won't decide for you but me personally won't get a car in peru. Much better conditions in colombia and ecuador tbh

How much did you paid on hertz for the car ? Do they sell you another insurance when you picked up the car ?
