Checked facts
No road, so the plan has no miles
The shipping plan leaves highway miles blank when a city pair touches Puerto Rico. Census state-to-state migration tables used for the 50 states and the District of Columbia have no Puerto Rico inflow row. A 2018 Bureau of Transportation Statistics profile says the Puerto Rico Ports Authority administers the public seaport, with cargo at Puerto Nuevo and barge service at Isla Grande. Treat that report's volumes as 2018 history. The plan's page is the Port of San Juan.
What Crowley requires before you see the car
Crowley's vehicle page for Jacksonville to San Juan says a booking reservation is required before the vehicle is delivered, and that the vehicle should be delivered to the port 24 hours before the scheduled sailing. The car should run, with the keys left in it, unless Crowley approves a non-runner. Personal items are not allowed, other than a spare and a jack. In San Juan, pickup is at Crowley's car division on Lindbergh Street, across from Isla Grande Airport, and only after you confirm the car is unloaded. Crowley then points customers to Hacienda for the tax release before the car can leave. That tax step is Puerto Rico's, and the time it takes is not a truck transit time. See Puerto Rico shipping.
Registration
Title and registration after the car arrives are on the Puerto Rico page. This note does not copy a fee. Confirm the current steamship and the current terminal, because more than one line can serve the island and this page does not set a rate. The Hacienda release Crowley describes is part of taking the car, separate from the sailing.
