Top tips for renting a car in Utah

  • You will require a valid driver's licence and a credit card in your name when picking up your hire vehicle in Utah. Debit cards may be an alternative in some circumstances, but you should check this in advance. The car hire company might ask you to present an additional form of identification, such as a passport, if your driver's licence is from another country, and it is advised to have an international driver's licence in addition to your foreign driver's licence if it is not written in the Latin alphabet.
  • Most highways in Utah have a speed limit of 55 mph (89 kph), especially in urban areas. On interstate highways, the speed limit rises to 65 mph (105 kph) or 75 mph (120 kph), while most state highways have a 65 mph (105 kph) speed limit. Only use the higher speed limits where posted. Transition zones between speed limits are usually indicated with pavement markings and other additional signs.
  • Utah law mandates the usage of seat belts for all passengers in the front seat, as well as for all children under the age of 10. Federally authorised safety seats are essential for children under the age of two. Under-18 motorcyclists and passengers must wear helmets at all times.
  • Book your rental car in Utah at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Economy rental cars in Utah are around 62% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • Should I hire a car in Utah?

    No matter the season, hiring a vehicle to go around Utah can be very beneficial. Both Arches National Park and Zion National Park are worthwhile destinations but are mostly accessible by car, not to mention the numerous stopping spots along the way. If you want to easily visit Park City in the mountains, you’ll need a car. The majority of Utah’s roads are known to be mountainous, with many ski resorts in the state and snowy winters. If you're planning to be in Utah during these months, you might want to think about hiring an all-wheel-drive vehicle. This will make it simpler and safer for you to navigate the mountainous routes when it's below freezing. In warmer seasons, an SUV hire vehicle with all-wheel drive is a fantastic choice for viewing Utah's various terrains.

  • What is driving like in Utah?

    When hiring a car in Utah, you should be aware of any local driving regulations and legislation that may be different from your own country’s. Every child under the age of eight must use a designated child seat. At red signals, make right-hand turns as long as you stop completely first and check for approaching vehicles. If there are malfunctioning traffic lights, proceed with caution and treat the intersection as a four-way stop. When it comes to drunk driving, Utah is pretty stringent. It’s illegal to drive your hired car with a blood alcohol content above 0.08%. Before obtaining your hire vehicle, inquire with the department of motor vehicles whether there are any additional laws you need to be aware of.

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

    The legal minimum age to drive in Utah is 16 years, and every driver must possess a current driver's licence. The law also applies to visitors who’d like to hire a vehicle in Utah.
