Can I drive in Amherst with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a driver’s license issued in the U.S, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting 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 ID. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the vehicle needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to confirm your home. Additional requirements for car rentals in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the car rental website before your trip to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you drive off so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, you typically can’t cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your rental car.
