Some zones may have driving limitations; make sure you’re aware of them.

Renting away from bustling areas can lower costs and ease parking difficulties.

Ensure that you have a valid driving licence with at least one year of driving experience. If you are a foreign driver travelling to Adelaide, an international driving permit may be required. Remember, hire rates can be higher for drivers under 25 or over 70
