Requirements may vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you choose a rental supplier.
What side of the road do you drive on in Rotoroa?
If you're renting a car in Rotoroa or planning a road trip in greater New Zealand, you'll be driving on the left. Also, the driver's seat and some controls will be on the opposite side of what you're accustomed to in the U.S. This may take a while to get the hang of, so drive with extra care.
