How old do you have to be to rent a car in Alston?
In Alston, the requirement is generally 21 years of age and over. Most outlets will charge extra fees for young drivers, which can vary depending on the rental location. Rental agreements for young drivers may include restrictions for certain vehicles, such as large cars, and require the purchase of inclusive insurance. It's always a good idea to read the fine print before booking your wheels.
What do you need to rent a car in Alston?
A valid driver's license and a credit card in the same name are essentials. Opting out of the company's insurance plan? In that case, you're also likely to need proof of your own coverage. Rules can differ between suppliers, so read your policy thoroughly.
What side of the road do you drive on in Alston?
In Alston, motorists drive on the left side of the road. This in itself can be daunting, but the driver's seat and some controls are also on the opposite side to what you're used to. To stay safe, take things slow to begin with and leave yourself some extra time to get to your next stop.

Where can I find an Alston car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the rental car companies that are in Alston. They often have different policies when it comes to minimum ages.
