Before you can get behind the wheel in Richmond, you'll need a driver's license and a credit card in the same name. If you don't take out the company's insurance policy, you may also have to show proof of other coverage. Requirements can vary, so understand the policy terms and conditions before you choose a rental supplier.
What side of the road do you drive on in Richmond?
Cars drive on the left-hand side of the road in Richmond. This means that the driver's seat and other controls are also on the opposite side. Allow plenty of time to familiarize yourself with the differences before taking off.

Where can I find a Richmond car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the rental companies located in Richmond. They often have different age policies.

Conduct some research into what those charges could be before picking up your vehicle.
