Good to know
Usually, you have to be at least 21 years old to rent a car in the United Kingdom. Being younger isn't always a deal-breaker — just expect some added charges or limits. Check the suppliers' terms and conditions before booking.
Add a car seat to your Wolverhampton car rental booking if you're bringing the kids. Rules can change from one location to another, but using a child seat suited to their size and age is always the safest approach.
Bring the right documents to keep the pick-up process smooth. You'll typically need your physical driver's license (no digital copies) plus another photo ID. Also bring along a credit card with room for the security hold. If extra documents are required, they'll be listed in your booking.
Driving in the United Kingdom can seem unfamiliar if it's your first time. Keep in mind traffic flows on the left side of the road.
Keep within local speed limits of about 40kph in built-up areas and around 100kph on highways. Always check the posted signs, as limits may vary.
The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit in the United Kingdom is 0.08%. Since alcohol's effects vary from person to person, the only way to be certain you're safe to drive is to skip the drinks.
Try to travel outside high-traffic periods for a smoother run in general. 5pm is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.
The British pound (GBP) is the currency you'll be using for day-to-day expenses and activities. Pay by card where you can, and keep a little cash when electronic payments aren't an option.
