How old do you have to be to rent a car in Kings Cross?
You have to be at least 21. But there are a handful of age-related requirements to be aware of before you lock in your Kings Cross wheels.

It’s always a good idea to compare the rules.

While requirements may differ between car rental outlets, the two key things you’ll need are your driver’s license and a credit card in your name. You don’t need to take out insurance with your home company. However, proof of your own coverage may be required.
What side of the road do you drive on in Kings Cross?
