Some businesses will apply a surcharge to customers between 21 and 24. Be sure to read through the terms and conditions to avoid any surprise fees.
Can I drive in Petaluma with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license from the United States, then you might need to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required for you to drive in the U.S, note that you’ll also need to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card you used to rent the car needs to match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about renting a car in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many states in order to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as the car rental website before you travel to understand all the regulations that may apply to you.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you leave the lot to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the U.S, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with a rental car. Please read the regulations before you book!
