For instance, Jaywalkers are typical in the city as pedestrians often ignore crosswalk regulations. As a bicycle-friendly city, it’s unsurprising to encounter cyclists. Unfortunately, they usually disregard traffic regulations and are generally impatient. Be sure not to hit them when driving your car rentals in Bucaramanga.

Several residents generally access the city via private vehicle, leading to vehicles jockeying for position.

Hertz rents through another company called Localiza. No where in the confirmation is that indicated, so I was looking for a Hertz office that does not exist. By chance I entered localiza’s office to ask for the hertz office and they told me it was them. Then they could not find the reservation record so it took a while to get going. The rented car was advertised for 5 people, when only 4 could barely fit and the trunk was non existent. I had to get an upgrade. Once I got going the experience was fine
