Top tips for hiring a car in Georgia

  • We all know Georgia for its spectacular beaches, breathtaking mountains, and vast farmlands. Car rentals in Georgia provide the most convenient way to travel around. Unlike most other states and cities across the United States, Georgia doesn’t charge a young driver fee. All you need is a valid driver’s license, a valid passport, and a valid credit card. Some car rental companies require each driver to have standard insurance and standard roadside assistance to help you enjoy your ride. On the other hand, it’s prohibited to use your mobile phone when driving in Georgia. There’s also a restriction on drinking and driving. All passengers should wear seatbelts.
  • Some car rental companies in Georgia indicate that all their rental cars are insured, while in reality, most of their vehicles aren’t insured. To avoid getting into the trap of renting a car from such companies, consider the type of insurance a car rental company has beforehand. Ensure the company offers insurance that thoroughly covers the rental vehicle you intend to book when you visit Georgia. Confirm that the company’s insurance will cover all likely damages that your rental car could experience during your Georgia tour.
  • Rental car drivers can experience accidents as they travel across Georgia. Car renters need to rent cars from a rental company that provides coverage for when they encounter unexpected car accidents. A good car rental company should provide you with a replacement if your vehicle experiences unforeseen accidents while you’re driving in Georgia. The company should get you another car to proceed with your Georgia visit if the first car broke down. Your company should also provide you with a replacement immediately after reporting to them that your car broke down during your road trip.
  • Touring the many attractions and beautiful places in Georgia with a rental car is a straightforward process. Georgia doesn’t have annoying traffic on every road like most places across the US. Rental car drivers, however, are obliged to adhere to various driving rules while driving in Georgia. Drivers of rental cars, for instance, have to slow down if they encounter an approaching police car vehicle. Rental car drivers also need to observe speed limits while driving in Georgia. For instance, drivers should maintain a speed limit of between 25 and 45 mph while driving within the city. Drivers can keep a speed limit of 70 mph while driving outside city limits.
  • Book your car hire in Georgia at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Intermediate hire cars in Georgia are around 26% cheaper than other car types, on average

FAQs about hiring a car in Georgia

  • Should I hire a car in Georgia?

    You could bring your own car if you want to take a road trip to Georgia. However, there are multiple advantages of renting a car in Georgia over bringing a personal vehicle to the state. For instance, car renters have the freedom to drive to various places, such as Tybee Island, Augusta, and Savannah with their rental cars. Furthermore, there is a cost-saving benefit that comes with driving in Georgia with a rental car. For instance, you will spend less fuel on a rental car compared to your own vehicle.

  • What is driving like in Georgia?

    Driving in Georgia is ultimately an excellent driving experience for every driver, including car rental drivers. The roads in Georgia have less traffic than in other cities.
