Only a valid driver’s licence and proof of address is required for UK citizens and other permanent residents to get cheap car hire in Doncaster. A DVLA code is useful but not mandatory. UK nationals with an unexpired licence or identity card do not have to show a passport for a hire car in Doncaster, but you should have one just in case. Passports will, however, be required for all visitors to the UK, along with their local driver’s licence and an International Driving Permit, in order to get a car hire in Doncaster. Along with your credentials, bring along a debit or credit card for payment purposes when you visit one of the dozen or so car hire locations in Doncaster. Enterprise, Keddy and Europcar each have two offices around the town.
Visitors to the UK obtaining a car hire in Doncaster should be familiar with some important road rules. Driving is done on the right and overtaking done on the left, and seatbelts must be worn by all occupants when on the road. The legal maximum speed in town is 30 mph unless otherwise stated. Some roads, such as the A38, have sections that are dual carriageway (70 mph) and others close to the town that are single carriageway (60 mph). Along motorways like the M18, a maximum speed of 70 mph is the legal limit. Motion cameras are common at junctions and traffic signs, so exercise caution to avoid fines. Operating hire cars in Doncaster drunk or under the influence of drugs is illegal, as is talking on your mobile while driving. Before you travel, it’s advised to check with the Doncaster City department of motor vehicles for recent law changes.
