How old do you have to be to hire a car in Lake Forest?
Rental car rules in Lake Forest require drivers to be 21 and over. Are you a young driver? Surcharges and restrictions may apply. Hire outlets impose what's known as a young driver surcharge, which is an additional fee to the cost of the hire car. Restrictions often apply to the categories of cars young people can hire as well. Age limits may vary between companies, so check before you book.
What do you need to rent a car in Lake Forest?
The main requirements are a valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name. Car hire companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may be asked to provide proof of other coverage if you prefer to opt out. Make sure you check with your supplier to avoid any problems.

Can I hire a car for a month or longer in Lake Forest?

Where can I find a Lake Forest hire car if I am younger than 25?
Whether or not you can rent a vehicle if you are under 25 in Lake Forest often depends on the rental company you select. Some places have a surcharge for young drivers aged between 21 and 24 years, but other companies may not apply any additional costs for this age bracket. It'd be wise to read the terms and conditions of your selected hire company to escape extra costs when picking up your keys.
Can I drive in Lake Forest with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the U.S, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence 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 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 need to be 25 or older in many states in order to hire a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local rules and regulations, as well as the hire car website before you go to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When hiring a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse rough terrain with your hire car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
