Top tips for renting a car in Oregon
- Oregon offers destinations as diverse as the reasons people come to visit. When planning for your visit, you’ll want to consider your own destination when choosing a rental vehicle. For example, if you’ll be driving down the coast, wouldn’t it be fun to let the wind blow through your hair in a snazzy convertible? Of course, if you’re meeting clients in downtown Portland or Eugene, a sharp sedan might better suit your needs. Whether it’s a four-wheel-drive to tour Crater Lake or an SUV for visiting Mount Hood, there’s a rental vehicle that’s just right for you waiting at a rental agency in Oregon.
- The maximum speed limit in Oregon is 70 mph, while the limit in business districts is only 20 mph. It’s always important to follow posted limits as they may change depending on the area (for example, school zones). Oregon driving laws permit drivers to use cell phones, GPS, etc. only when in hands-free mode. Texting, however, is not permitted while driving in the state. All children under the age of two must be secured in rear-facing car seats. Children over age two must remain in car seats until they reach a weight of at least 40 pounds, after which time they may begin using a booster seat.
- Oregon features many exciting and modern cities, from Portland to the capital Salem. However, this beautiful state also includes quite a bit of rural and backcountry areas. If you plan on traveling through some of Oregon’s less-urban areas, it’s a good idea to take advantage of gas stations whenever you see them. There may be long stretches of highway without a gas station along your route, so it is recommended to fill your tank as opportunities present themselves. While the unspoiled nature of Oregon is inspiring, you wouldn’t want to run out of gas miles from civilization.

FAQs about renting a car in Oregon
Should I rent a car in Oregon?
Having your own rental vehicle while in Oregon means having the freedom to go where you need to on your own schedule. Public transportation doesn’t always serve all of the areas you might need to visit on your trip, and taxis can be expensive at times. However, when you rent your own car, the sky’s the limit. From Thor’s Well on the coast to the endless forests near Bend, to downtown Eugene, you’re in charge of your own schedule when you rent a car in Oregon.
What is driving like in Oregon?
Driving in Oregon is as easy and convenient as one could hope. Interstate 5 runs north to south, while Interstate 84 generally travels east to west. Aside from the interstate highways, Oregon features everything from urban streets to small-town avenues and even a few gravel roads out in the countryside. You may even encounter a toll road on your visit, such as the Bridge of the Gods, which crosses the Columbia River to connect with I-84 near Washington. While the winter can bring snowfall and icy conditions, Oregon does a fine job of maintaining its roads year-round.
How old do you have to be to rent a car in Oregon?
Oregon, like most other states, allows for teenagers to begin driving with a permit around age sixteen. This does not mean that a sixteen year-old can rent a car in the state, however. In Oregon, the legal minimum age for renting a vehicle is twenty one years. It is important to bear in mind, however, that if you wish to rent a vehicle before you reach age twenty five, many rental agencies will add an underage surcharge to your rental agreement. Sometimes this surcharge is assessed per day, other times it is simply added to the bill entirely. Be prepared to show a valid driver’s license or other documents when signing your rental agreement.
