Delray Beach is known for being filled with pedestrians and cyclists, so make sure to drive extra cautiously and avoid bike lanes in order to prevent yourself from getting in a collision. The town also has many small and windy streets, particularly along the coast, so you may be interested in adding a GPS system to your rental car to help you navigate the city.
Many residents travel in and out of the city for work, so local highways, such as A1A, 1, and 95, are generally very congested during rush hour. If you don’t want to risk getting caught in a traffic jam, try to avoid driving on these roads between the hours of 8am to 9am and 5pm to 6pm. During the fall, Delray Beach tends to be rainier than normal, which can make the streets slippery.

Cons:
I prepaid for my car rental via Kayak/Priceline and Thrifty had no cars available for me, and I was told they had 34 similar reservations they could not accommodate because the system should not have allowed the bookings to occur knowing what the locations inventory would be. I had no choice but to have my payment refunded and I had no car during my vacation in Florida.
