Question 9

Is it worthwhile to book a rental car in Connecticut?

Accepted Answer

One of Connecticut’s greatest advantages is its proximity to New York. The cosmopolitan metropolis that is the Big Apple should definitely be on your holiday bucket list, and with a rental car in Connecticut, it can be. Both the Tri-State and the New England regions are also easily accessible with your hire car. Connecticut offers beautiful scenic drives in autumn (with its multi-coloured falling leaves) that are worth the price of a cheap car rental, and then there is the coastline that makes its way up and down the length of the state. The state capital, Hartford, is filled with history and culture, while Bridgeport is the largest city (and forms part of metropolitan New York), which offers ferries to Long Island. New Haven is the other sizeable human population centre in the state.

Question 10

What are the driving conditions like in Connecticut?

Accepted Answer

Like the rest of the United States, Connecticut enjoys a good quality of roads, which makes car hire in Connecticut a suitable item on your holiday to-do list. While the moderating effect of the Atlantic Ocean means that this coastal state is less prone to extreme weather than states of similar latitude further inland, winters here are still fraught with bad weather. Weather systems that move up from the tropics can also unleash storms causing sea surges that lash the coast with rain. Connecticut’s highest order roads include the I-95, I-84 and I-91. The I-95 will take you north to Boston and south to New York, and since this is a fairly small state (which means you may want to travel out of state), check with the agency that does your car rental in Connecticut whether you are allowed to cross state lines.

Question 11

What laws should I be aware of when driving in Connecticut?

Accepted Answer

Laws for driving your rental car in Connecticut are similar to many other states. Use of seatbelts is compulsory for all occupants of a vehicle; children under four must be secured in a child restraint seat; it is illegal to depart the scene of an accident that you have been involved in, without identifying yourself, and doing so carries with it serious consequences, including losing your licence. The legal age for drinking in the state is 21, and Connecticut has a zero tolerance policy when it comes to underage drinking, so be aware that if you are driving but you are under 21, you should not drink at all.

Question 12

What documents do I need to hire a car in Connecticut?

Accepted Answer

For cheap car rental in Connecticut, you will need a valid driver’s licence with photo identification. If this is not available, you may have to prove that the licence is in fact yours, with identification in the form of your passport or by some other manner (such as an international driving licence or permit). You will be required to sign your paperwork in the presence of the rental agent, so that they can verify the authenticity of your signature against the one that appears on your licence. Also, be aware that state law requires car hire companies to keep your records and identification documentation on file for one year after rental.

Question 13

When did momondo last update prices for cars in Connecticut?

Accepted Answer

Question 14

How many operators does momondo search for cars in Connecticut?

Accepted Answer

As of May 2025, there are 88 operators available to choose from for cars in Connecticut.

Question 15

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

Accepted Answer

Among different countries, including Connecticut, the minimum age for drivers varies. In numerous EU countries, drivers must be 18 years old. To hire a car overseas, you'll generally need to be at least 21, and if you're under 25, a young driver surcharge may be imposed. It's recommended that you review the policy of the rental company you're considering before booking.

Question 16

What documentation or ID do you need to rent a car in Connecticut?

Accepted Answer

To rent a car in Connecticut, all drivers must present a valid full driving license. If the license is written in a language other than the language of the country of rental, an International Driving Permit may be required to avoid the risk of potential fines. If you're renting a car abroad, you may also need to provide evidence of your return travel and accommodation information during your stay. We always recommend that you verify with the specific rental company you're booking with.
