Rhode Island car hire

There are many benefits that a rental car will give you as you traverse this region. First, you will save much time driving yourself compared to using the bus. Second, a rental car allows you to explore more and discover more. Yes, the public transport is adequate, but it will not get you to Rhode Island’s hidden gems like a rental could. Moreover, a rental car will allow you to enjoy the beautiful coastline as you drive along Route 1A and the beautiful 19th-century architecture along Ocean Drive in Newport. Finally, a rental car gives you comfort and convenience, something public transport wouldn’t.

Before getting on Rhode Island roads with your rental car, there are a few tips you need to know. It would be best to stick to the speed limit in Rhode Island as it is strictly enforced. Stick to 20 mph within school zones and 25 mph within city limits. On general roads, expressways, and highways, you can keep the vehicle between 45 to 50 mph and up to 65 mph on the interstates. Always yield to pedestrians on the crosswalk as they have the right of way. Keep an eye on the many bicyclists and the bike lane; you can cross the bike lane when making a turn, but not stop on it as you prepare to make a turn. Parking is in plenty in Rhode Island, but don’t park within 8 feet of a fire hydrant, 20 feet of a crosswalk, 30 feet of a traffic signal, and 50 feet of a railway crossing.

Drivers have to be at least twenty one to be eligible to rent a car in Rhode Island. It is the minimum age requirement for most Rhode Island car rentals, but some rental agencies allow twenty year-olds. As you pick up your rental, you’ll be required to present a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. There’s also a young renter’s charge for drivers between twenty one and twenty four. Moreover, if you’re in this age bracket, you won’t have access to some vehicle classes, such as cargo and passenger van rentals, premium and full-size SUVs, and luxury and exotic models.
