San Francisco, USA: minivan rental hints
Typical models of the minivan/minibus class in San Francisco are: Chevrolet Suburban 8 Seater, Chevrolet Uplander, Chrysler Voyager, Dodge Caravan, Ford Clubwagon 15 Seater and GMC Envoy 7 passenger.

Standard capacity of a minivan in USA is up to 9 people (8+1 formula), traditionally providing seven or eight passenger seats. The capacity of a minibus may vary from 9 to 15 people.

Please note, that in order to rent in USA a vehicle with capacity which exceeds 8 passengers, you would need a driving license of the corresponding category.

Minivan dimensions are quite unusual for an ordinary driver, which sometimes leads to appearance of scratches and dents during unsuccessful manoeuvring or parking. Therefore, we encourage you to order full coverage of insurance franchise during your booking, or directly at the rental office in San Francisco.

Before leaving the parking garage in San Francisco, inspect the minivan for exteriour defects and other signs of damage together with the office representative and mark the found defects found in your rental documents.

OrangeSmile.com wishes you a great driving experience on the roads of USA!

One more important factor – exceeding the maximum permitted speed on toll roads is prohibited, even if there are no police. The time of entering and leaving a toll road is clearly recorded. This means that officers will have no difficulty in calculating the average speed of any vehicle.
Parts of roads that are adjacent to major cities are considered the most difficult ones. They are distinguished by a large number of furcations and numerous shields installed along the roads. Inexperienced drivers should move slowly on such road sections as there’s a risk of missing the right exit. Otherwise, you can lose a lot of time searching for a suitable place to turn back. Returning to a missed exit will be not easy.
All the federal roads are equipped with special service areas, which are usually located on both sides of a highway. Cars are allowed to enter these service areas only if they don’t cross the route of cars moving in the opposite direction. Each direction has its own service area. Sometimes the areas can be located between the opposite lanes – this happens when service areas are shared.
