Stupid is as stupid does.
I have heard that the Jeeps for rent on Cozumel have all had their 4WD disabled to discourage renters from doing this kind of stupid... stuff.Take the jeep.
The only slightly good thing is that while I gather the Jeep was a rental, that guy (Adrian E.M.L.) might have been from Mexico. The article doesn’t say anything about his being an extranjero.
I looked at few articles but they all said exactly the same thing (no indication of nationality ). While it does scream stupid tourist , I am just not sure if it was a foreign tourist
Anyone see something that indicated where he was from?
That is my guess, as well. If it was a foreign tourist, wouldn’t the authorities have filed something with the applicable embassy or consulate?
