What do you need to rent a car in San Francisco?
Generally, all that’s required is a driver’s license and a credit card in the same name when picking up the keys to your vehicle.

What side of the road do you drive on in San Francisco?
Vehicles drive on the right and pass on the left in Philippines — the same as in the U.S. Navigating around San Francisco won’t be exactly like home, though. It’s a good idea to acquaint yourself with the local road rules.
