Question 17

While visiting, is it worthwhile to rent a car while visiting Atlanta?

Accepted Answer

While there are a few neighborhoods in Atlanta that are walkable, like Midtown, Buckhead Village, and Downtown, the city is best accessed by vehicle. While the city has MARTA transportation, coverage is not extensive and car rentals are a great way to explore with autonomy. And with a significant number of parking lots, garages, and metered spots available, there are many places to store your rental while not in use. An economy car rental is a good option if you’re staying in the Greater Atlanta area, giving you access to places like the Georgia Aquarium, where parking spots may be tight, and Six Flags Over Georgia, which is to the west of Atlanta. Cheap car rentals in Atlanta also grant you access to places like Augusta, Chattanooga, the Chattahoochee National Forest, or The Allman Brothers Museum, all of which are within a couple of hour’s drive. Interstates 85 and 20, among others, which run straight through Atlanta, make these spots accessible.

Question 18

What different driving laws should I keep in mind while driving in Atlanta?

Accepted Answer

Atlanta’s driving laws are fairly consistent with national regulations. For example, you’re prohibited from driving if you have a BAC—blood alcohol content—of .08% or higher. There are hefty penalties for failure to comply with this restriction, so rather than take your Atlanta car rental for a night out at the bars, you may want to opt for a taxi or an Uber/Lyft/ride-share app service. Keep in mind that it is illegal to use your cellphone while driving, which includes both texting and making phone calls. Unless there is a sign that specifically states it is prohibited, you are allowed to make a right-hand turn on a red light. When driving on a freeway or interstate, you should always stay out of the left-hand lane unless you are passing another vehicle. If you are driving in a construction zone, always yield to maintenance vehicles and workers. Georgia traffic laws also require that all front-seat passengers wear a seatbelt and all back seat passengers aged 17 and younger must buckle up too. Children seven and below must be secured in a child’s seat, which can be obtained along with many car rentals in Atlanta. If you’re unclear regarding any statutes, check with Atlanta’s department of motor vehicles for any recent changes in traffic laws.

Question 19

Can I drive into Mexico in a rental car from Atlanta?

Accepted Answer

Because this area is a relatively short drive from the border, it’s not uncommon for travelers to use car rentals in Atlanta to drive to nearby cities in Mexico. Most major car rental companies are fine with their customers doing this, but make sure to check with your chosen agency before embarking on your journey. If you’re hoping to travel to Mexico with an Atlanta car rental, keep in mind that you will need to secure Mexican automobile liability insurance before crossing the border. Many rental companies allow you to do this directly through them for an additional fee. In addition to this particular type of insurance, renters must have a driver’s license issued by the government that will not expire during your rental period. Because you will be traveling to a different country, you will also need a passport. You may use a United States-issued passport card as well.

Question 20

Can you rent a rental car in Atlanta without a credit card?

Accepted Answer

When reserving car rentals in Atlanta, even cheap car rentals in Atlanta, most companies prefer that you pay for your reservation with a credit card. Some companies will accept alternative payments, such as debit cards, but you may need to be 25 years or older to use this form of payment. When paying with a debit card, a company may also ask you to undergo a credit check or provide proof of insurance or address. Some companies accept prepaid cards, but many do not. Depending on your specific company and location, you may be allowed to pay with either cash or check. If you pay with a credit card, debit card, or check, keep in mind that the name on this form of payment should always match the name on the driver’s license that will be used.

Question 21

What documents does an international traveler need to rent a car in Atlanta?

Accepted Answer

Even if you don’t have a driver’s license issued by the United States, you will usually still be able to rent a car in Atlanta, as long as you are able to provide a few additional documents. Almost every car rental company will accept a valid international driver’s license. Many foreign driver’s licenses are accepted as well, but some companies may require them to be in an alphabet that is Latin-based. If this is not the case, the company may ask for you to obtain an official translation from an external company. You will also need to provide the rental car company with your original passport from your home country. In general, the company will take a photocopy of this document and keep it in your file. Your passport and your driver’s license cannot expire during your rental period. In Georgia, you must be at least 21 years old to rent a car, and renters under the age of 25 may also need to pay an extra fee.

Question 22

When did momondo last update prices for cars in Atlanta?

Accepted Answer

Prices for cars in Atlanta are refreshed on a daily basis.

Question 23

How many operators does momondo search for cars in Atlanta?

Accepted Answer

There are 64 operators available for cars in Atlanta as of April 2026.

Question 24

How old do you have to be to hire a car in Atlanta?

Accepted Answer

The minimum age for drivers varies by country, including Atlanta. In many EU countries drivers must be 18 years old. As a rule, you’ll need to be 21 to hire a car abroad, and a young driver surcharge may be applied if you are under 25. We recommend reading through the policy of your chosen rental company before booking.

Question 25

What documentation or ID do you need to rent a car in Atlanta?

Accepted Answer

When renting a car in Atlanta, all drivers must present a full valid driving license. An International Driving Permit is required if the driving license is written in a language different to that of the country of rental and may be necessary to avoid the risk of potential fines. If you are renting abroad, you may also need to provide proof of return travel and accommodation information during your stay. We always recommend checking with the individual rental company you are booking with.
