What are the requirements for renting a car in Toronto?
When renting a car in Toronto, you must be at least 21 years.

Are there toll roads in Toronto?
Toronto has electronic toll roads in the Greater Toronto Area, using the 407 Express Toll Route system.

For a stress-free travel experience using toll roads in Toronto, consider renting a car from the rental companies that offer toll inclusion packages, where you pay a daily fee covering all the toll charges during the period you use the rental car.

You can drive your rental car from Toronto to various US states, including New York, Michigan, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.
