Good to know
You usually have to be at least 21 years old to rent a car in the United Kingdom. Younger drivers can sometimes still qualify — just be ready for a few added rules or costs. Check the companies' terms and conditions before booking.
If you're bringing the kids along, check if you need to add a car seat to your Harlow car hire booking. Whether local laws require them or not, they're always the safest way for little ones to travel.
You'll need to hand over a few things when collecting your rental car: a current driver's licence, another form of photo ID, and a credit card that can cover the security deposit. Debit cards usually aren't accepted. Any extra must-haves will be shown in your booking.
Spend some time getting acquainted with your rental. Check your seat and mirrors, test the brakes and blinkers, and get comfortable with its handling before you set off. And don't forget to stick to the left side of the road in the United Kingdom.
Keep within the local speed limits. Most of the time that's around 40kph in built-up areas and 100kph or so on highways, unless road signs indicate differently.
The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit in the United Kingdom is 0.08%. Because alcohol doesn't affect all people equally, the only way to be sure you're safe to drive is to avoid drinking.
Aim to travel outside high-traffic periods for a smoother trip. 5pm is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.
You'll be using the British pound (GBP) on your trip here. Along with your bank cards, consider bringing some cash for minor purchases.
