Important information about Baltimore car rentals

Car rentals in Baltimore provide a great way to navigate this bustling Maryland city. With a car, you can easily move around exploring some of the attractions, such as the Walters Art Museum, Fell’s Point, and even Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine, among others. With a rental car in Baltimore, you can easily cruise through the Franklin-Mulberry and Jones Falls Expressways, which connect some of the most popular places around town. Also, with hundreds of rental car locations in Baltimore, you shouldn’t have a hard time getting the perfect rental for your visit to Baltimore. It doesn’t matter if you’re looking for an SUV, a luxury car rental, an economic car, an electric car, or even a passenger van, you are sure to find something you will love.

Is it worthwhile to rent a car while visiting Baltimore?

Getting a rental car in Baltimore would be doing yourself a huge favor because you stand to gain a lot more than you’ll lose. For starters, walkways in Baltimore aren’t particularly that good, and if you’re looking to move between two places that are considerably far apart, walking wouldn’t be feasible. If you decide to use public transport, then you will have to always work with their timings because both the bus and the metro follow a strict timetable. This will limit your flexibility and will also hinder you from visiting certain attractions and fun hotspots around town. As for parking, there are plenty of parking lots and garages where you can leave your car, but very few are free as most of them are reserved for the locals and other commercial buildings. Even the parking spaces available on the streets are usually metered, but the cost is quite pocket-friendly. One of the best parts about getting a Baltimore car rental is that you can even drive out of the city center to visit some of the breathtaking attractions, such as Hell House and Baltimore’s Inner Harbor, which are around an hour’s drive away from the city center.

What different driving laws should I keep in mind when driving in Baltimore?

The traffic laws for the state of Maryland aren’t that different from those of other states, so there isn’t much you need to adjust while driving in Baltimore. Also, any speed of over twenty miles per hour above the speed limit would be considered reckless driving, so the penalty is likely to be higher. To be on the safe side, you can always go through the Maryland state traffic laws before getting your rental cars in Baltimore.

What kind of driver’s license do you need to rent a car in Baltimore?

When going for car rentals in Baltimore, be it an electric car rental, luxury car rental, passenger van rental, or even your typical economy car rental, you will have to provide a valid driver’s license whose expiration date shouldn’t be before the rental agreement ends. If you’re not a US or Canadian resident, you may be required to produce an international driver’s license as well as a passport whose validity exceeds the rental agreement period.
