FAQ: Řízení v San Diego
Do I need a car in San Diego?
For a full San Diego experience, yes. While downtown and beach communities are somewhat walkable, attractions like the San Diego Zoo, La Jolla, Coronado, and North County beaches are spread out. The trolley covers some routes.
Can I drive to Tijuana, Mexico?
Yes, but it's easier to park on the US side (at the border lot) and walk across. Driving in Tijuana requires Mexican auto insurance, which US policies don't cover. Returning to the US by car can take 2-4 hours during peak times.
What are 'May Gray' and 'June Gloom'?
Coastal fog and overcast skies are common May-June (and sometimes into July). Morning fog can reduce visibility, especially along the coast. It usually burns off by midday. Use headlights and drive cautiously in foggy conditions.
