Can I drive in Rochester with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license issued in the United States, you might need to get 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 required for you to drive in the U.S, be aware 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 you used to hire the car must also match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Other things you should know about hired a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states to hire a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you’re hiring from before you travel to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or go off-roading with a hire car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
