Top tips for renting a car in Alberta

  • The basic car hire documents in Alberta include a valid driver’s licence and one of the major credit cards. Non-residents might need an International Driver's Licence and a passport for identification to hire a car. Some Alberta car hire agencies offer an extra car-hire protection insurance package to hirers (acts as a collision damage waiver and basic hire car insurance). Check to see if your car hire package includes additional protection insurance and read and understand the details of the given policy. Other car hire companies may only have hire car cover and will require that you buy a separate insurance policy.
  • Once you pick up your vehicle from your car hire agency, it’s important that you observe traffic rules and other road regulations from the beginning. Always drive on the right-hand side of the road. The law also prohibits drivers from making U-turns at traffic lights unless there's a "U-Turn Permitted" sign on display. Drivers are also banned from texting while on the road.
  • Drivers and passengers should ensure that they are comfortably buckled up before setting off. The driver is responsible for ensuring children between the ages of six and 15 wear an authorised children's seat belt depending on individual weight and height. The law also applies to children younger than six years but weighing at least 18 kg.

  • What is driving like in Alberta?

    Driving conditions in Alberta are pretty friendly, even for newbies. If you're coming from Montana, driving across the border into the province is surprisingly quick and easy. Also, Alberta highways are moderately busy, and the various road and traffic signs are very clear. Alberta Road Department has ensured that construction work along motorways is minimal, to avoid distractions and long backups and consequently, time wastage. In most of Alberta, it is not surprising to find an extra lane that's purely dedicated to vehicles moving faster than the regular flow of traffic. This makes it easier for faster drivers to pass slower traffic, when necessary. It’s crucial to keep in mind the time of year and season when hiring a car in Alberta. For example, during the summer months, it’s wise to pick a car that has air conditioning and is not susceptible to heating up excessively; whereas, during the winter season, it’s a good idea to choose a vehicle with good traction and stability control, to avoid skidding on icy roads during snow storms.

  • How old do you have to be to hire a car in Alberta?

    Currently in Alberta, you must be at least 21 years old to hire a car. Some Alberta car hire agencies allow younger drivers to hire vehicles, but you’ll need to check with them individually. A “young driver fee” generally applies to those under the age of 25, which is used to cover the risk of accidents and damages, while they may only be able to hire certain types of vehicles. You should read any fine print carefully to avoid unpleasant surprises involving costs, since policies differ from dealer to dealer.
