However, this depends a lot on the company whose services you choose. Some of them may impose certain conditions related to minimum age or driving experience. At the Alfa rent a car Cluj office, for example, to rent a car, a minimum of one year of driving license is required, and the mandatory age must be at least 21 years.
Even if you respect these conditions, you must be aware that you assume a responsibility when you get behind the wheel and that is why it would be a good idea to pay attention to the way you drive a rental car.
1. Get used to your new rental car!
It is very important to adjust the seat, steering wheel and mirrors in such a way that you are comfortable and have the best possible visibility. Before you hit the road, make sure you’re comfortable and everything is adjusted to your needs.
2. Slow down in the rain!
Obviously, heavy rain affects visibility, and the wipers don’t always work. The best advice is to slow down and avoid sudden, sudden braking, as the car can skid. Equally important is the distance you have from the vehicle in front. Keep an appropriate distance so that you have time to act in case of need. If you happen to be involved in a car accident, don’t panic! The first thing you should do is call the car rental agent, and he will guide you further.
3. Give enough room for trucks when turning!
Trucks with trailers need a lot of space when they have to turn around curves. Make sure you give yourself enough space as the truck may need two lanes to turn.
4. Watch out for roundabouts!
Don't forget to signal the direction you are going before entering the roundabout. Also, respect the right of way and don't cut in front of cars already in the right lane.
5. Watch out for pedestrian crossings!
Keep your eyes peeled when approaching a pedestrian crossing! Many people tend to simply run towards the zebra crossing without checking, risking running right into the car without having time to react. It is best to slow down when you see the sign warning of a pedestrian crossing.
