  • What is driving like in Jersey Shore?

    Before driving around Jersey Shore in your new rental car, here are a few things you need to know. Stick to the right side of the road except when passing. It is illegal to use your cell when driving unless you’re using a hands-free device. Driving with a blood-alcohol level of 0.08% or higher is prohibited, and the offense comes with severe consequences. Ensure your headlights are on when visibility drops to less than 500 feet or when you have your windshield wipers on due to inclement weather. Always yield to pedestrians and emergency vehicles or school buses with flashing lights or an extended stop sign. Stick to 20 to 35 mph within city limits, 30 to 55 mph on undivided rural roads, 55 mph on divided rural roads, and 50 to 65 mph on freeways within and outside city limits.

    The minimum age requirement for Jersey Shore car rentals is twenty one. All eligible drivers will be required to present a credit card in their name as well as a valid driver’s license. Those between twenty one and twenty four are considered young renters, and a young renter’s fee is charged daily on these drivers.
