Help on the rental process
The quality of roads in the Dominican Republic is poor. Even locals do not dare to drive on some roads at night. Many roads do not have asphalt covering, and on many roads asphalt surface starts as unexpectedly as ends. Taking into consideration the fact that many roads are not lit, it is safe to say that foreign visitors should drive in the daytime only.
There are incredibly many motorcycles and scooters in the Dominican Republic. Their number is significantly more than the number of cars. As a rule, two-wheeled transport has no fender lights, so for car drivers motorcycles and scooters can be very dangerous. Before you open the car door, make sure there is no moped or motorcycle approaching.
Horse-drawn carts are also not rare on local roads. Large carts often move on busy roads. As a rule, carts are very slow and their drivers pay absolutely no attention to other traffic participants.
