Top tips for hiring a car in Pennsylvania

  • Whether you’re in the front or back row, remember to buckle up when traveling in a Pennsylvania car rental. Pennsylvania law requires all passengers to wear a seatbelt at all times and kids to be in an appropriately sized car seat. All kids under four years of age must be in a car seat, while those below three must be in a rear-facing car seat. Kids between the ages of five and eight should be in a booster seat.
  • Wildlife is pretty common in Pennsylvania, especially in some of the most rural parts of the region. The Pennsylvania Turnpike is one of the roads with frequent animal crossings, so be on the lookout for opossums, deer, skunk, and foxes that may suddenly venture onto the road. Additionally, keep your eyes on the road and maintain a safe following distance to avoid any swerving caused by sudden animal crossings.
  • Crossing state or international borders with a Pennsylvania car rental is allowed. Most rental locations will allow travel into Canada, but only a few will allow you to travel into Mexico. Traveling to Canada is pretty straightforward; all you need to do is inform the rental provider of your travel plans and you’ll be issued with a free Canadian non-resident insurance card required for driving in Canada. However, if you’re traveling to Mexico, you’ll be required to purchase additional Mexican motor vehicle insurance to cover the rental while in Mexico before you’re allowed to travel there.
  • Remember to refuel your rental before returning it to avoid extra charges at the rental location. Pump gas at a station close to your drop-off location to ensure that you return the rental with a full tank of gas. Letting the rental company fill up the car for you will cost significantly more because of their higher price per gallon compared to regular gas stations. Alternatively, you can prepay for fuel at the rental lot and return the car on empty, but note that there are no refunds for unused gas.

FAQs about hiring a car in Pennsylvania

  • Should I hire a car in Pennsylvania?

    Pennsylvania is a rich state with a long list of attractions, and you will need a car rental if you want to fully explore its picturesque countryside, bustling urban centers, and the beautiful beaches of Lake Erie. A car rental gives you a comfortable and convenient means of getting through the region and at your own pace. Unlike the public transportation in place, you can stop whenever and wherever you please with a car rental. Moreover, if the family will be tagging along, a passenger van rental or minivan should be a great way of keeping everyone together, happy, and comfortable.

  • What is driving like in Pennsylvania?

    You must not exceed the following speed limits when driving in the region: 25 mph for residential districts, 35 mph for urban districts, 65 mph on freeways, and 55 mph on rural highways. Pennsylvania also has a Steer Clear law that stipulates: if you encounter an emergency vehicle with flashing lights, you need to move to a different lane not adjacent to the one where the emergency personal are operating. On some rural roads, you might encounter horses and buggies on the road. Be patient and only pass the wagon when the road is clear. Avoid honking as that may spook the animal and cause an accident.

    In most rental locations, you need to be at least twenty one years old to rent a car. Additionally, you need to present a valid driver’s license and credit or debit card in your name at the time of renting. Similarly, many locations have a young driver’s surcharge, usually charged for drivers between twenty one and twenty four.
