Tips for renting a car in Georgia
Browse helpful tips for renting a car in Georgia including age restrictions, car type suggestions and more. Tips were last updated on September 18, 2026.
- While the state of Georgia does not have any toll roads for you to worry about, it does have some interstate express lanes that drivers must pay to access, such as the I-85 which ends at Hamilton Mill Road. You can use these even in a rental car, but it is important to keep in mind that none of them accept cash. Instead, you can only pay electronically, which is typically done by card. Depending on the car rental company that you select, your vehicle may be equipped with a Peach Pass or Sun Pass, but you should ask for this ahead of time. These passes are automatically scanned as you enter the express lane, and the fees will then be charged to your rental invoice.
- Anyone traveling with children will want to keep in mind that the state of Georgia has rather strict car seat laws. All children under the age of eight are required to be always in a proper car seat or booster seat, including when you drive from the airport and first pick up your rental vehicle. The only exemptions are for taxi cabs and public transportation. This means that you will either need to travel with your own car seat or ensure that you reserve one through your respective car rental agency, which many companies do offer.
- It is not uncommon for drivers to cross the border from Georgia to Mexico on a road trip. Most rental companies will allow you to drive to Mexico with your rental car, but there are a few things that you must do. Make sure to let your rental company know ahead of time, as you will need to pay for some additional insurance, like Mexican Automobile Liability Insurance. Some companies will also only let you drive up to a certain number of miles across the border, so you will need to verify this.

Car rental FAQs
Find answers to frequently asked questions about car rentals in Georgia, including policies, requirements, and more. FAQs were last updated on September 18, 2026.
Should I rent a car in Georgia?
While many cities in Georgia do have some public transportation, like local buses, rental cars remain the best way to explore the state. If you want to be able to have flexibility and freedom, as well as easily move all the luggage that you are traveling with, it is best for you to have access to your own car. Plus, when you have a rental car, you will be able to go on road trips and travel from city to city. If you are traveling with a group, such as family or friends, rental cars are also particularly useful.
What is driving like in Georgia?
In larger cities, like Atlanta and Savannah, you can expect to face lots of congestion, especially in the late afternoon when everyone comes home from work and school. Outside these urban centers, much of the state is rural, so you will usually have wide and open roads that have very little congestion. There are also quite a few highways in Georgia, so be prepared to drive on these, particularly if you are driving between cities.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Georgia?
If you would like to rent a car in Georgia, you need to be a minimum of 21 years old. Unlike other states, Georgia does not have a young driver's fee, so you will not be charged extra for being under the age of 26. The maximum age for renting a car in Georgia is 79 years old. In addition to being between the ages of 21 and 79, you will also need to be in possession of a valid driver’s license that you have had for at least a year, and which has no limitations.
