But they're not your only options. Go even smaller with an economy model or bigger with an intermediate, a full-size or premium — the choice is yours!

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Waitaki Bridge?
Generally, you need to be 21 years of age and over in Waitaki Bridge. It's worth noting that most companies will charge additional fees for young drivers.

What side of the road do you drive on in Waitaki Bridge?
In Waitaki Bridge, you'll need to drive on the left side of the road. This alone can be daunting, but the steering wheel and other 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 extra time to reach your destination.
