Some Bristol providers will rent cars to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Policies differ between suppliers, so you'll need to do some research. Also, find out if there are additional costs. Some places will have a surcharge for young drivers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions to avoid any nasty surprises.
Can I drive in Bristol with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a 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. 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 valid driver's license and your passport or other form of ID. 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 need to be 25 or older in many states to rent a car, although in some places, the minimum age is 21 years. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you're renting from before your trip to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your home vehicle. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
