Insurance and optional extras

Good to know

  • Age requirements can vary by supplier (and even car type), so be clear on the rules before you book. Some suppliers in Australia may rent to younger drivers for an extra fee. If you're outside the typical age range, simply uncheck 'Driver aged between 25–70' and then enter how old you are to unlock the right options.

  • Travel plans include the kids? Child car seat laws vary according to the location, and the correct setup may depend on their height, age and weight. Find out if you need to add one to your Tweed car hire reservation.

  • You'll need some documents when collecting your car. As a rule, bring a valid driver's licence, a credit card with enough balance for the excess (most companies don't accept debit cards), and another form of photo ID. Your booking will confirm exactly what's required.

  • Driving in Australia may take some getting used to if it's your first time. Keep in mind you'll need to stick to the left side of the road.

  • Follow the local speed limits. Most of the time that's around 45kph in urban areas and 95kph or so on highways, unless signs say otherwise.

  • In Australia, the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit is 0.05%. If you intend to have a couple of drinks, pass the keys to someone else or use public transport instead.

  • Try to travel outside heavy traffic periods for a faster run in general. 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.

  • You'll be using the Australian dollar (AUD) for day-to-day spending throughout your trip. You may find it helpful to carry a mix of cash and cards to make sure you're always covered.
