Important information about Dover car rentals

In general, you're free to book a car rental in Dover and take yourself on a road trip across the US – you're not bound to the state of Delaware. However, some rental companies have limits on this. For example, SIXT only allows you to drive to neighboring states no matter which of its car rental locations in Dover you choose. In this case that would include New Jersey and Maryland. Canada is only a couple of states away from Delaware – you can drive through Pennsylvania and New York State and enter the country near Toronto. Most Dover car rental companies will let you do this – all you'll need is your passport and a non-resident Canadian insurance card. You should organize this before booking your rental.

You can use a debit card to book a car rental in Dover just as easily as a credit card, although you may have to accept a few restrictions. The different major providers like Budget, Avis, Enterprise, and Hertz all accept debit cards if you're over 25 (you need to be 25 to rent a car in Delaware in the first place). A normal proviso is that instead of your credit card providing surety for your booking, you'll need to pay an upfront deposit when you book. Most companies won't let you take a passenger van rental or a luxury car rental in Dover, so bear in mind category restrictions too. It's also wise to check on the rental company websites, as some of them don't accept debit cards from certain countries. Other stipulations are that the name on the debit card must be the same as that of the person renting the vehicle, and the provider will do a quick credit check before confirming your booking. With those provisos, it's equally convenient to get cheap car rentals in Dover using either a credit or debit card.

You'll need to carry your driver's license and the rental car's proof of insurance at all times when driving. Fines for not producing insurance papers can be hefty. Delaware also has a very strict distracted driving law, making it illegal to use any kind of mobile phone, tablet, or another handheld device while driving. Urban areas in Dover have a speed limit of 25mph on two-lane roads, and 35mph on four-lane roads. If you're driving across Delaware, the highway speed limit is usually 55mph, with some parts designated as 50mph zones, and others allowing you to travel up to 60mph. Be careful to observe the drink-driving laws – the limit is 0.08% blood concentration, but you can still be charged with reckless driving if you test at 0.05%.
