Saint Paul car rentals from $41/day

An ideal choice for car rentals in Saint Paul is an all-wheel drive midsized vehicle. This will give you more control during winter driving while allowing you the maneuverability to get around busy city streets during heavy traffic. All-wheel drive is easier to use for inexperienced winter drivers than four-wheel drive, as the rotation rate of the tires adjusts to your turns and makes the drive smoother.

The speed limit throughout downtown Saint Paul is 25mph. If driving through residential streets, the speed limit drops to 20mph, as the city is pushing a "20 is Plenty" promotional campaign to ensure the streets remain safe for children and families. A majority of city-owned streets have posted limits of 25mph, but if there is not a posted sign, the limit is 20mph. If you are leaving the city via highway, speed limits are 65mph in urban interstate areas and 70mph in rural interstate areas.

Parking in downtown Saint Paul ranges from about $0.50 to $2 per hour, depending on location and time of day or week. The majority of parking in the city is street parking, but there is plenty within walking distance of iconic spots, such as Union Depot Lot A near the river walk along the Mississippi River. If you are planning to park overnight in the winter, ensure that you are not parked in a spot marked "Night Plow Route," which indicates that a snowplow needs to clear that area of snow during the night. Failure to move your car might result in your vehicle being towed or covered in so much snow that you will need to shovel your way out.
