While many car categories (like compact and economy) are available to young drivers, restrictions usually apply to luxury and specialty vehicles.
What do you need to rent a car in Hettipola?
Two things — your driver's licence and a credit card in the same name. Car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of other coverage if you prefer to opt out. Make sure you check your policy terms and conditions to avoid any hassles.
What side of the road do you drive on in Hettipola?
In Hettipola and across Sri Lanka, you'll need to drive on the left. This alone can be daunting, but the driver's seat and some controls are also on the opposite side to the U.S. For a smooth and safe journey, take things slow to begin with and allow yourself ample time to get to your next stop.
