Question 13

Can I drive in Gilroy with my current driver's license?

Accepted Answer

If you don't possess a driver's license issued in the United States, then you might need to get 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 part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, know that you'll also have to show your valid 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. Some additional requirements for renting a car in the U.S. Are:

Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states in order 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 you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
Driving limitations: 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, drive on ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your rental car. Please read the regulations before you book!
