  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the hire car company before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or go off-roading with your hire vehicle. Please read the details before you book!
