Insurance and optional extras

  • From navigation systems to reverse cameras, the right extras can totally transform your drive. Consider which features will help you make the most of your trip when you rent a car in Jackson.

Good to know

  • Generally, you have to be at least 21 years old to rent a car in the United States. Being younger doesn't always disqualify you — just be ready for a few added rules or costs. Check the suppliers' terms and conditions before booking.

  • Add a car seat to your Jackson car hire reservation if you're planning to travel with the kids. Requirements change from one place to another, but using a child seat suited to their size, age and weight is always the safest choice.

  • You'll need to bring a few things when collecting your rental car: a valid driver's licence, another form of photo ID, and a credit card with enough funds for the security deposit. Debit cards aren't widely accepted. Any additional requirements will be listed in your booking.

  • For first-time drivers in the United States, don't forget that traffic here sticks to the right side of the road.

  • Stay within local speed limits of about 40kph through built-up areas and around 110kph on highways. Always check the posted signs, as limits may vary.

  • A blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit of 0.08% applies in the United States. The safest choice for staying legal to drive is to not drink at all.

  • Try to travel outside heavy traffic periods for a smoother run. 5pm is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.

  • The United States dollar (USD) is the currency you'll be using for day-to-day purchases and excursions. Pay with a credit or debit card when it's convenient, but have some cash handy for places that don't accept electronic payment.

  • English is the language most commonly spoken throughout this country.
