  • When coming to Daly City, there’s a good chance that you will land at San Francisco International Airport (SFO) as it is the closest airport to the city.

  • Daly City is a walkable city and most people prefer cycling to their destinations or taking alternative means such as the light rail. This can be both an advantage and disadvantage to drivers since there are fewer cars on the road, but at the same time, pedestrians are significantly more. For that reason, you ought to be careful of pedestrians and cyclists when driving especially around downtown. Double check your mirrors before taking a turn and look at both sides repeatedly when crossing an intersection.
  • Driving in this city can sometimes be an uphill battle for visitors since the Bay Area in general has relatively unusual roads. One-way streets are a common occurrence and when that is coupled with the steep hills and varying traffic rules, it's nearly a recipe for disaster. The best thing to do is to get a GPS installed on your car rentals in Daly City so that you can navigate these streets better.
