Can I drive in Essex with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license from the U.S, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you'll also have to show your valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card 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 rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it's usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive onto ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your car rental.
