Car Rentals in Idaho

When you are visiting a state like Idaho with so many great outdoor destinations to visit at all times of the year, having a large van or an SUV is a great option. When you visit in the wintertime and roads may be snowy or icy, a four-wheel-drive car rental is a bonus. Make sure that you carry tire chains no matter what type of vehicle you have. Three large interstates travel through Idaho, including Interstate 84 that goes through the towns of both Boise and Idaho Falls, Interstate 90 to the north that travels through the very scenic Coeur d'Alene, and the major north-south route of Interstate 15.

Driving in Idaho is much the same as you will find in any other state in the United States, such as always driving on the right side of the road in your car rental, having every person in the vehicle wear a seatbelt, and making sure you are always using your cell phone in a hands-free manner while driving your cheap car rental. Beyond that, one thing to keep in mind when driving here is the permissive yellow light law. If your front bumper has reached an intersection when the light turns yellow, you are free to proceed through the intersection. Another thing to watch out for when driving here is that bicyclists have different rules than cars. For example, when they come to a stop sign, they do not need to stop, and instead only need to make sure they can clearly go through the intersection without causing an accident. In Idaho, you can also turn left onto a one-way street when there is a red light. For the most up-to-date Idaho driving laws, check with the local motor vehicle bureau.

To obtain a car rental in Idaho, you will need a valid driver's license with the name of the person renting the car on the license. If the license is not in English, you will also need an international driving permit. Most rental car companies require a major credit card to secure and pay for a rental.

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.

We always recommend checking with the individual rental company you are booking with.
