Age requirements vary by company and even car type, so be clear on the rules before you book. Some companies in Canada may rent to younger drivers for an extra fee.

Take a few moments to get used to your rental. Check your seat and mirrors, learn where everything is, and get a feel for its handling before you drive away. And importantly, stick to the right side of the road in Canada.
Make sure you stay within the local speed limits. Usually that's around 45kph in urban areas and 95kph or so on highways, unless signed otherwise.
In Canada, the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit is 0.08%. If you expect to drink, pass the keys to someone else or use public transport instead.
