Can I drive in Cambridge with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the United States, then you might need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car. 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 forms 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. Other things you should know about hired cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older 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 with the company you're hiring from before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with your car hire. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
