KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Tipton
- Car hire in Tipton enables you to depart for your destination at a time suitable for you, rather than wait on bus and train timetables. Having a hire car also means you can travel directly, without the need to make transfers, which is sometimes the case with public transport. For example, you can drive to Wednesbury in about 12min. However, this same journey via bus or train takes closer to 50min and sometimes requires a transfer.
- Birmingham Airport (BHX) is one of the closest terminals to Tipton. With a large choice of car hire agencies to pick from, it’s a great place to pick up your hire car. After passing through the security checks and collecting your luggage, you’ll find the car hire companies easy to locate. For example, Alamo is located in the Arrivals Hall, whilst Green Motion requires you to get a free shuttle bus to the branch. After you have shown identification, paid, and completed the paperwork, your Tipton car hire provider will take you to your vehicle.
- Using a car hire in Tipton, you’ll see it’s a busy town on the outskirts of Birmingham. In general, the driving style is relaxed and considerate, which is ideal if you’re unfamiliar with the area. You should always be on alert when driving through the centre of the town, though, as jaywalking is legal in the UK, so people will cross the road where they please. Ensure that you regularly check your mirrors too, as cycling is a popular sport in the area, and you are likely to come across many cyclists during your journey.
- When driving a Tipton hire car, you will see that it can get very congested, especially during rush hour when locals are travelling to Birmingham and back for work. This tends to be from approximately 8:00 to 9:00 and around 17:00 to 18:00. If you aren’t a confident driver, it’s recommended that you avoid driving in rush hour. The A4037 is one of the busiest roads in the area. An alternative road that should have less traffic is High Street, which goes in a similar direction.

An SUV is ideal for countryside driving as it provides you with superior grip and handling.

Outside schools and hospitals, you can’t exceed 20 mph. On countryside roads, the top limit is 60 mph, whereas it’s 70 mph on motorways.
