How old do you have to be to rent a car in Ooty?
Ooty rules state drivers must be at least 18 to rent a vehicle. However, young drivers will be subject to a surcharge and tighter rental conditions. Most suppliers impose a young renter fee on top of the usual rental rate. This helps cover the higher risk of damage or accident. While many car categories (like compact and economy) are available to young motorists, restrictions usually apply to luxury cars.
What do you need to rent a car in Ooty?
Any rental company you choose will ask for these two things — a valid driver's licence and credit card. If you choose to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of your own coverage will also likely be needed. Read through your policy so you know what to bring when it's time to collect your wheels.
What side of the road do you drive on in Ooty?
If you get behind the wheel in Ooty, you'll have to drive on the left. Take note that the steering wheel will also be on the opposite side to what you're familiar with. Consider booking a car with automatic transmission to make things a little easier.

Where can I find an Ooty car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Ooty outlets will rent cars to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Age policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you should do some research. Also, find out if there are any additional costs. Some places will apply a surcharge to customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always read through the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
