It's handy to know this ahead of time so you can budget accordingly. Every car hire company has its own rules for younger drivers, so be sure to do your research.
Can I drive in Philadelphia with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the U.S, you might need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before starting the car hire process. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S., know that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to hire the car must also match the name on your driver's 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 or older 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 the hire car website before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the U.S, you typically can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or traverse rough terrain with your hired vehicle. Please read the regulations before you book!
