When it comes to this region, a cheap car rental in Fort Lauderdale is an affordable and convenient way to explore all of the main sights.

Car rentals in Fort Lauderdale are easiest with a major credit card. That said, getting cheap car rentals in Fort Lauderdale without a credit card is possible, although it can tend to be a little trickier than using a credit card. Most major rental car companies will allow you to rent a car with a debit card. When doing so, you generally will need to be at least 25 years old, your name must be on the debit card, you will be required to show proof of a return airline ticket that corresponds to your rental period, and you will also be subject to a credit check. In addition, rental car companies will generally put a sizable hold on your debit card during the term of your rental. Not all locations will let you reserve a car with only cash, but if they do, expect to pay a sizeable deposit to rent the car. When trying to rent a car with cash, you should choose smaller rental car companies that tend to have more flexible policies.

One very important thing to keep in mind when driving rental cars in Fort Lauderdale is that they do not have a "right on red" law. At a red light, you must stop completely—you may not turn right until the light turns green. In Florida, you must have your headlights on all the time from dusk to dawn in your electric car rental, and you must also turn on your headlights when it is either raining or foggy. If you come to a tollbooth, make sure you turn off your windshield wipers in your luxury car rental in Fort Lauderdale. You may not text at any time while driving a car. There is no ban on talking while driving your passenger van rental, but it is always best to use a hands-free system. All passengers in a vehicle must be wearing a seatbelt, and any children four years old or younger must be in a car seat. The Florida Move Over law requires you to move over a lane in your economy car rental and slow down when you see stopped law enforcement or emergency vehicles.

If you are traveling from a country other than the United States or Canada, you must present a valid, unexpired license driver's license from your home country that includes your photograph for Fort Lauderdale car rentals. If the license is in a language other than English, an international driver's permit is also recommended so that the rental car company can translate the home country’s license. If you cannot obtain an international driver's permit in your home country, you may substitute a professional, type-written translation. It is important to note that you may not rent a car with an international driver's permit alone. Some locations in Fort Lauderdale may also require foreign visitors to provide another form of identification, such as a passport, before renting a car.
