Hawaii car rental information

What are the driving conditions like in Hawaii?

While Hawaii is generally known for its warm weather and sunshine, the state can also be quite wet depending on the island and the time of year that you will be visiting. If you will be driving your car rental during rainy conditions, make sure to lower your speed limit in order to be as safe as possible. It’s also important that you always use your windshield wipers and headlights in the case that you are ever caught in a storm. There are a few main roads that you will want to keep your eyes open for, as they connect several major regions and cities. For example, there is Interstate Route H-1 on the island of Oahu that passes through Kapolei and Honolulu. There is also Route 19 that is on the island of Hawaii and goes through the cities of Hilo and Kona.

What laws should I be aware of when driving in Hawaii?

To be as safe as possible when operating your car rental, make sure that you are aware of some of Hawaii’s local traffic laws. For example, many of the roads in the state are single lane, and if you are driving well below the speed limit, you are legally required to pull over and let other drivers pass you. If a child is under the age of nine, they should never be left unattended in a vehicle. As long as there is no sign stating otherwise and it is safe to do so, you may make a U-turn. Double parking is never allowed, even in particularly busy areas, so make sure to always remember this.

What documents do I need to rent a car in Hawaii?

To rent a car in Hawaii, even cheap rental cars, customers must be at least 21 years old. You are also required to have a valid driver’s license that will not expire during your rental period. If you do not have a license that has been issued by the United States government, you may still be able to rent a car by providing either an international license or a license from your home country. Make sure to have your passport with you, as many rental branches will want to keep a copy of it in your file.

Is it worthwhile to book a rental car in Hawaii?

The state of Hawaii is not known for having extensive public transportation, making a rental car one of the easiest ways to travel throughout the islands. If you select a cheap car rental, it's also an affordable way for you to head to your destinations. While some larger cities may have transport options, such as Honolulu, many areas can only be accessed by driving. If you decide to go on a road trip or head to a more remote attraction, car rentals in Hawaii can also be a particularly convenient option. Plus, having your own vehicle means that you can travel whenever you like, rather than sticking to the timetable of a local bus line.
