Can I drive in Ithaca with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the U.S, you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is required, note that you'll also need to show your current driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the car needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Some additional requirements for hiring a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to hire a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, and with the hire car company before you go to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When hiring a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with your car hire. Please read the details before you book!
