information and tips on car rentals.

Rental
requirements
In most countries you must be at least
21 years of age, with a valid license
issued in your country of residence.
Many companies require a major credit
card for deposit on vehicles. Where
cash is sometimes accepted, it may be
only for certain models. Driving into
neighboring countries, or completing
your rental in a different town/airport
may be permitted for depending on the
company, country and location of return.
Check in advance before you make plans.
International Driving Permits
Your driving licence will be honored
in most countries, however there are
countries where non-local Driving Licences
(in different languages or particularly
in languages using different alphabet
structures). It is recommended that
you carry an International Driving Permit.
An IDP is written in 10 languages and
serves as an officially recognized translation
of your local driving licence in over
150 participating members of the United
Nations. Your IDP should always be accompanied
by your valid local driving licence.
The UN itself does not issue driving
permits, but uses authorised travel
associations to administer the service.
A passport-size booklet is printed in
10 languages. It explains that the motorist
has a driving license from his permanent
place of residence. The Permit has been
widely used for more than fifty years
and is recognized almost everywhere
in the world.
For more information and for applications
please contact your local country motor
club organizations.
Insurance
Many auto insurance companies do not
provide coverage for car rentals outside
your home country, so find out before
you go. Some credit cards may entitle
their holders to a degree of cover for
damage to, or loss of, the rental vehicle.
Again, know the coverage in advance.
Your Journey
Check before you leave the rental car
lot to make sure you have all items
of your luggage, maps you may require,
and that you do not feel overly tired.
During your travels, pay careful attention
to your purse/wallet and where you keep
your car keys. Please do not leave your
baggage unattended or valuables/keys
on a desk or table. If you are travelling
in a group assign someone to stay with
your luggage while all/any other drivers
of the vehicle familiarize themselves
with the vehicle.
Your rental vehicle
Please check that the vehicle conditions
written on the vehicle statement are
correct and if an apparent defect not
listed is noticed when examining the
vehicle; please notify the rental agency
right away.
Familiarize yourself thoroughly with
your vehicle before departure. Learn
where all the controls are and how they
operate. If you are driving in a country
where vehicles are on the opposite side
of the road that which you are used
to, take additional time to get comfortable. |
