  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel 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 go off-roading with a rental car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
