South Shields has a mix of narrow streets, residential areas, and bustling town centre roads. Opting for a car that is small to medium-sized can be advantageous for manoeuvring through tight spaces and navigating urban areas with ease. It is located in North East England, which means it experiences typical British weather conditions. If you plan to venture into rural areas or explore the nearby countryside, a South Shields car hire with good handling, traction, and potentially all-wheel drive (AWD) capabilities may be beneficial, especially during inclement weather.
As in the rest of the United Kingdom, 30 mph is the default speed limit for most residential streets, urban roads, and built-up areas in South Shields, unless otherwise signposted. Some residential areas, school zones, and designated areas may have lower speed limits of 20 mph. The default speed limit for single-carriageway roads outside built-up areas is 60 mph and 70 mph for dual-carriageway roads and motorways in the UK. It is important to pay close attention to the road signage as they may differ depending on the road and weather conditions.
South Shields has several multi-storey car parks conveniently located near popular areas. The Word car park, located in the town centre, is a popular choice and is free for a maximum stay of 3 hours. There are on-street parking spaces available in various areas of South Shields, such as Saville Street, which offers 112 parking spaces costing around £0.50 for an hour and £1.30 for 24 hours.

Some South Shields car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in South Shields.
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a non-deductible option to your South Shields car hire.
