Top tips for renting a car in Arkansas

  • Many people opt to travel to Arkansas to witness the best that this southern state has to offer. Traveling to Arkansas with your family can be fun and exciting. However, Arkansas law is concerned about the safety of your little ones. The law requires that kids below sixteen years old should be properly secured in a car. Also, children below six years of age and weighing less than 60 pounds should be in a secure car seat during the ride. Children between five and eight years old must use a booster seat, while those aged between six and fifteen years and weighing 60 pounds or more should wear seatbelts. Bear in mind that it’s against the law to smoke in your rental car while riding with a passenger aged below fourteen.
  • Always have your credit card while renting a vehicle in Arkansas. Your card can help you offset some of the car rental expenses, including gas and accessories, such as GPS. Furthermore, some cards can provide some level of insurance coverage for car renters. Your card will also assure the rental car company that you will cater for car damages that may occur while you are touring Arkansas. Moreover, car rental companies in Arkansas prioritize car renters with credit cards while renting out their vehicles.

While looking for appropriate spaces to park your rented car, make sure to take into account amenities such as safety protections like cameras and gates, and hours of access.

Others allow motorists to choose pay-by-phone parking or opt for pay stations for on-street parking.
