Make sure you read through the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
Can I drive in Elgin with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the United States, then you might need to get 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, be aware that you’ll also have to show your current driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to hire the car must 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 need to be 25 or older in many states in order 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 additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse off-road areas with your car hire. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before booking!
