Frequently Asked Questions

Who must take the Jalisco knowledge exam?

Applicants for a new automovilista, chofer or motociclista license take the examen de conocimientos viales and the practical exam at a SETRAN module. Renewals (refrendos) do not require the exams. Motorcyclists also present a curso vial certificate from SETRAN's Mi Licencia platform.

What are Jalisco's default speed limits?

Article 124 of the Ley de Movilidad, Seguridad Vial y Transporte sets 30 km/h on secondary and tertiary roads (reduced to 10 km/h at entry and exit times of schools, hospitals and places of worship), 50 km/h on primary roads without controlled access, 80 km/h in central lanes of controlled-access avenues, and 80 km/h on state highways outside urban zones (50 km/h inside them). No intersection may exceed 50 km/h.

Can I turn right on red in Jalisco?

Under the 2023 Reglamento, continuous right and left turns are prohibited except when coming from and entering one-way streets and an express sign allows it.
