Although accidents involving trains and cars are rare, they are almost always serious. When travelling in your car rental vehicle, you need to not only respect trains, but also railway crossings. Most drivers cross dozens of railways each week without complication, or ever even seeing a train. But that doesn't mean you should forget about them!
Roundabouts traditionally were thought of as only a European traffic tool, but in recent years, they've made a renaissance in North America and throughout other parts of the world. Roundabouts are typically used to control the flow of traffic, making otherwise difficult intersections more manageable and safe for drivers… if you know how to drive in one.

So you're ready for a March Break adventure? There are thousands of miles of beautiful roads ahead of you that lead to fantastic beaches and attractions, exhilarating theme parks, delicious restaurants, and quiet retreats.

The first time driving a van for anyone is a different experience. Vans don't handle like a sports car, or even a midsize sedan. Your van rental will be longer, taller, and have different sightlines than the average vehicle.
Imagine never being able to see other vehicles on the road until they are in front of you.
Now imagine trying to do this in a car rental vehicle you're driving for the first time. Anytime you step into a vehicle, especially a vehicle you're unfamiliar with, safety and taking the precautions necessary to protect yourself and your loved one's becomes priority number one.
