Can I drive in Del Mar with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license issued in the U.S, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., know that you’ll also have to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to hire the car needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Other things you should know about hired cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 in most states to be able to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as the hire car website before you go to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you usually can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your hire vehicle.
