Other things you should know about hiring a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your hire vehicle. Please read the details before you book!
