Cozumel Leads the Country in Moto Ownership

 

Recently a report came out announcing that Cozumel, as a municipality,  has more scooters and motor bikes ( or motos as they are called here) per inhabitant than anywhere else in  the entire country of Mexico.

According to vehicle registration statistics, there in Cozumel there are over sixty thousand vehicles  operating here on island, with more than thirty-five thousand of them being motos.  That also means that motos outnumber cars and comprise almost 53% of all island private transport.

 

As far as the stereotype that Cozumel drivers are some of the worst in the entire country, according to recent statistics, the island has an average of 3 – 4 vehicular accidents daily.

 

Cozumel es líder en el país en lo que respecta a motocicletas 

Hace poco salió a la luz un reporte que informaba que el municipio de Cozumel hay más motonetas y motocicletas por habitante que en cualquier otro sitio de México.

 

De acuerdo con las estadísticas del registro de vehículos, en la Isla de Cozumel existen más de sesenta mil vehículos, y más de treinta y cinco mil de ellos son motos. Esto también significa que las motos superan a los automóviles y constituyen casi 53% de todo el transporte privado en la Isla.

 

En cuanto al estereotipo de que los conductores de Cozumel son de los peores de todo el país, según estadísticas recientes, diariamente ocurren, en promedio, 3 a 4 accidentes vehiculares.

An ex-Connecticut Yankee who has called Cozumel home for over 18 years, Laura ran away to the Caribbean years ago, bumped around the islands teaching SCUBA diving, lost some time in Jamaica, and finally stopped in Cozumel for a 2 week vacation that hasn’t ended yet. With a degree in Journalism from a fancy private college she convinced her parents to pay for, Laura writes, edits, and creates the weekly Cozumel 4 You news, social media, and promotional articles about the island, as well as moderates the Cozumel 4 You Facebook group, which currently has over 25,000 members. Her long suffering husband, Fabian, has long since resigned himself to having zero private life, as he’s been involved in her various schemes and plots since his arrival. Proud parents to a variety of rescue dogs and cats, Laura continues to be the bane of her traditional Mexican mother-in-law’s existence, as she muses her way through life in the Mexican Caribbean. ______________________________ Una ex yanqui de Connecticut quien llama hogar a Cozumel desde hace más de 15 años. Laura escapó al Caribe hace años, desplazándose de una isla a otra dando clases de BUCEO. Se dedicó a perder el tiempo en Jamaica y finalmente se detuvo en Cozumel para pasar unas vacaciones de 2 semanas que aún no terminan. Convenciendo a sus padres que pagaran una elegante universidad privada, obtuvo su título en Periodismo y Laura crea semanalmente Cozumel 4You, medios sociales y artículos promocionales sobre la Isla y también es moderadora en el grupo Cozumel 4 You en Facebook que actualmente cuenta con 25,000 miembros.

Mientras contempla su paso a través de la vida en el Caribe mexicano, Laura continúa siendo la pesadilla en la existencia de su muy tradicional suegra mexicana.
