Travel Info I'm 17, will be a problem drinking and going to the bars with my 18 year old friends? Travel Tips I practically own PV and I am here to tell you. You will not be drinking in the bars of this town. You will be carded because you are too young. The legal drinking age its 18 here. There is something called REGLAMENTOS inspectors (City business law enforcement) They are all under cover, inspecting bars (even those opened all night). If they catch a bar serving you they have to authority to close down the business, even take their business license away or not renew it. So most bar owners are not as stupid as you think. They rather stay open for business to sell to all the adults that are safe potential customers. One more thing. If your buddies get drinks for you, I suggest you hide to drink them because the city police can arrest you as well for under age drinking on the beach and or streets. Now if you get drunk and get in trouble or make a scene your buddies will be in more trouble than they are going to be able to talk their way out of it. My suggestion to you is to respect the law here and be good. You do not want to end up in a Mexican jail. A lot of those guys in there like white meat!!! Others Maybe. If the bar requires an ID then it could be a problem. Of course 10 or 20 dollars given to the right person could solve that problem. Remember MONEY TALKS AND B.S. WALKS! Yes of course I know that. And my answer gives you some suggestions. At the clubs in Mexico they check id's. I am in my 40's and they still check id's. That is what they do to get in. Now some places like restuarants maybe not, but you must know that even in Mexico they have their own system of laws. depends, are you slick enough? ;) If you are in the US, that is going to be a big problem, as our drinking age is 21. Yeah probably because you're underage. it'll be a problem for someone, if not you, then the establishment that sells you liquor. The legal drinking age is 21, so yes, it should be a problem. |
