Insurance and optional extras

Different Arras car hire providers have different insurance policies and coverage levels, so check the terms before booking.

Good to know

  • Add a car seat to your Arras car hire reservation if you're bringing the kids. Regulations change from one place to another, but using a child seat suited to their age, size and weight is always the safest choice.

  • Come prepared to make pick-up as quick as possible. You'll generally need your physical driver's licence (not a screenshot or digital version) and a second photo ID. Have a credit card ready for the deposit too. If extra requirements apply, your booking will list them.

  • Driving in France can seem unfamiliar if it's your first time. Keep in mind you'll need to stay on the right side of the road.

  • Follow the local speed limits. Usually that's around 45kph (30mph) in urban areas and 125kph (80mph) or so on highways, unless road signs indicate differently.

  • In France, the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit is 0.05%. If you think you'll be drinking, leave the driving to someone else or take another form of transport.

  • Around 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination. Try to avoid busy hours generally for a smoother drive.

  • You'll be using the euro (EUR) here. In addition to your debit and credit cards, consider having some cash handy for minor purchases.
