Can I drive in Amherst with my current driver's license?
If you don't possess a driver's license from the U.S, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S., know that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the car needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the car rental website before you book to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you drive off the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the United States, you usually can't cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your home vehicle. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
