Travelers can find car rental advertisements under Gar Rent­als in the Yellow Pages. The two largest American car rental companies, Hertz and Avis, have offices all over the US, with counters at most airports and in many international cities. Other national car rental companies you can find at airports, such as Thrifty, National, Budget or Dollar, have offices in other coun­tries too. So you may want to reserve a car through your travel agent in your own country.

In order to rent a car, you have to have a major credit card, such as MasterCard or Visa, or a credit card with the company itself. Without a credit card you may have to pay a very high de­posit on the car.

It is also possible to rent used cars rather than new ones. Rent-А-Junker and Ugly Duckling, which have offices in 40 states, are two of the many used car rental companies. Their rates are often lower and they don’t always demand a credit card. Sometimes they have special offers that make the total cost of renting a car even lower.

Americans like to do business without leaving their cars. You’ll see drive-in banks, drive-in restaurants, drive-in churches and drive-in movies.

When driving in the US , it’s a good idea to have an interna­tional drivers’ license if you don’t have a state license. Each of the fifty states has its own traffic laws. (For example, in some states drivers can pump their own gas at “self-serve islands”, while in others this is not allowed.) Drivers are expected to know and understand the laws even if they don’t live in the state. Get information when you cross the border into a state at a tourist information center.

There is a national speed limit of 55 miles per hour, or about 80 kilometers per hour. Americans usually start and stop slowly and are generally polite about letting cars enter busy streets. They usually stop for people who are walking to let them cross the street. In many states you may turn right after stopping at a corner, even if there is a red light. On some roads there may be a minimum speed.

If you rent a car, ask the company what to do in case your car breaks down. Some companies will ask you to call a special number. Others will want you to have the car repaired. They will deduct the cost of the repair from your bill.

“Mileage” can mean two things. It may mean the total num­ber of miles a car has been driven. On the other hand, “gas mile­age” is the number of miles a car can travel on one US gallon of gas.

If you want to rent a vehicle you can sleep in, you should ask about RVs — recreational vehicles. You don’t need a car to pull an RV — you can drive it! Yet it’s as big as a house trailer. You can also rent a camping trailer.
