Car rental for people under 21 is often, unfortunately, very hard to come by. Most companies will only cater for drivers who are over 21 years of age, and some for those over 23! However, there are a few car rental companies that can provide a solution if you need a car and you are under 21.
The reason why car rental companies are often hesitant to rent to those under 21 years of age is due to the risk that they pose. Often young drivers are less experienced, and are therefore more likely to be involved in an insurance claim. For this reason, if you are a young driver you will often have to budget for more expensive rental rates than those over 21.
Many people 21 years of age or under still need a cost effective means of transportation when travelling. If this is the case then the best place to start is by searching the internet. Search for those who specifically cater for young drivers and you may be surprised with the results. Once you do, always read their terms thoroughly to ensure you are entitled to rent a car from them, asking them any questions if necessary.
