Tips for hiring a car in Florida
Browse helpful tips for hiring a car in Florida including age restrictions, car type suggestions and more. Tips were last updated on 21 January 2025.
- As in the rest of the United States, drink driving is a serious offence in Florida. Police have the right to pull your car over should they suspect that you are under the influence of alcohol. As they carry portable breathalysers with them, they can test you to ensure you are not above the limit. The legal limit in Florida is 0.08% blood alcohol content. If you’re found to be above this, you will be prosecuted according to state law. This could mean being fined, suspended or, depending on the circumstances, possibly even imprisoned.
- If you are driving with children, it is important that you adhere to the car seat rules in this state. For instance, children younger than three years of age must be in a rear-facing car seat. Between the ages of four and five, the child must be in a booster seat, whereas kids that are six years old and weigh at least 27 kg do not need a child seat. You can request suitable safety restraints from your car hire agency prior to collecting your vehicle.
- Most car hire agencies allow you to drive your vehicle across state borders without any issue. It’s always best to check your chosen agency's policy beforehand though. You should also be able to drive over country borders, to locations such as Mexico. However, it’s important that you get written permission to do this. If you don’t have written permission, your insurance will probably not be valid, resulting in border authorities rejecting your crossing. You will also need to ensure you have an adequate visa to enter a country like Mexico.
- It’s possible to pay for your Florida hire car with a credit card, as this is universally accepted and the number one choice of payment for many car hire companies. Some car hire agencies also accept debit cards, provided it is from a major provider, whilst a few companies, such as Dollar, even accept cash payments. Although, you will still need a credit card to leave a security deposit on the vehicle.
