Young Drivers From Norway

We were recently contacted by two young drivers from Norway who were aged 22 years old and were wanting to rent a car within the USA, San Francisco to be exact. They each had held their licence for approximately four years and where wondering whether it would still be possible for them to hire.

The good news is that we can hire to these customers within the US as the young drivers age is 21 and you only need to have held your licence for a year prior to this, however you will be charged an additional young drivers fee per driver. It is also beneficial if you have a clean licence but any licence that has less than 6 penalty points with no major convictions will be accepted.

If you did however happen to have two drivers on the rental as they have requested above then they would each have to pay a significant amount on the young driver surcharge which could make the hire unaffordable, we suggest that if possible then you should just stick to the one driver and split the costs between you as this will be far more cost efficient.

In the US we can hire to young drivers in a variety of different places, also something key to mention is that we can also do convertible car hire for young drivers which when driving in the USA is extremely beneficial.

If you are interested in hiring a car in San Francisco or anywhere else within the United States then simply call our reservation agents on +44 (0)113 880 0748 or email us at sales@indigo.ecomfixers.com and we will be happy to find you the best price available from a variety of different suppliers.
