Can I drive in Lafayette with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a driver's license from the United States, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements 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 forms of ID. Lastly, your credit card used to hire the vehicle must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car hire. Additional requirements for hire cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in most states to be able to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you're hiring from before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with a hire car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
