One of the most exciting things about being a young adult and driving are the places you can check out and the experiences you can have, either on your own or with family and friends. Of course, if you want to go out and explore the world, you must enhance those driving skills using your own car, your parents’ vehicle or a rental car.

Once your skills have been tested and enhanced, you might decide it’s time to go out of town. If you don’t have your own mode of transportation, you might want to use a rental car agency to help you out.

Why Los Angeles Car Rental Companies Don’t Rent To Persons 21 Years Of Age and Younger

Stop! You might be disappointed to learn that many Los Angeles car rental agencies do not rent to persons under the age of 21. Why? The reason for it is not clear. After all, you do have your license and can drive your own vehicle. One reason for a car rental agency’s hesitation is the fact that under 21 year old drivers are not experienced behind the wheel… unlike older drivers. Anyone under 21 years of age are more likely to experience accidents, which can result in repairs and insurance hassles.

Of course, persistence can pay off. You can find some rental car agencies that do allow persons under 21 years of age to rent a car in Los Angeles from them. One instance is you being a part of a corporate discount program such as being in an internship program. You could also be permitted to drive a rental car if your insurance policy includes full coverage on collision and liability.

Your Budget and The Los Angeles Rental Cars

It doesn’t matter what car rental agency you choose to rent your car from, you can be sure to pay additional monies for it, which can exceed $100 depending on the company and its location. Be sure to keep this in mind since it can significantly increase your rental car budget, and if you plan on renting the vehicle for some time, the fee can really cost you a pretty penny.

Some car rental agencies may restrict the kind of vehicle class you can rent, which means you may not be driving a sports car anytime soon!

Thus, as a 21 year old or younger driver, you might find success renting a car from a local and/or smaller car rental company than the major car rental organizations. It’s likely to take time because you’ll have to go through each of their websites; but, if you really want it, then you’ll do the research to find it.

It’s very important to research each of the car rental agencies to determine if they’re worth the money and time to do business with. You might also want to look into other transportation choices since it can save you money in the long run, which would allow you to purchase your own vehicle down the road (and in the future).
