How old do you have to be to rent a car in Newlands East?

While many car classes (like economy and compact) are available to young renters, restrictions usually apply to specialty cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Newlands East?
The main requirements are a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name. Most car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of other coverage if you prefer to opt out. Be sure to check your policy requirements to avoid any problems.
What side of the road do you drive on in Newlands East?
Unlike the States, people in Newlands East drive on the left side of the road. Having the driver’s seat and some other controls on the opposite side can also take some getting used to. Take a few moments to familiarize yourself with the vehicle and its quirks before getting on the road.
