Can I drive in Columbus with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the U.S, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., note that you'll also need to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card 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 in many states to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure 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 traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car hire. Please read all the rules and regulations before booking!
