RequirementsTo rent a car, you must be at least 21 years old (age may vary by car category) and have held your license for 1 year. Drivers under the age of 25 may incur a young driver

surcharge. Seatbelts are mandatory and children under 12 must be in an age-appropriate restraint.
Speed LimitsSpeed limits in Italy are as follows: City - 30mph/50kph, Open Roads - 66mph/ 110kph, Highways - 81mph/130kph.
TollsItaly's autostrade (motorways) are toll roads. You can pay by credit card (look out for the credit card symbol at the toll gates - at the Blue "Viacard" gate). If worse comes to worst and your card refuses to work, don't panic. It's within your rights to request that a bill be sent to you (don't forget to pay, though!).
GasGas stations are open from 7am to 12:30pm and from 3:30pm to 7pm. Most stations are closed on Sundays. There are 24 hour stations along the highways.
ParkingParking is a problem, especially in the major cities. It is a good idea to leave your car in a supervised car park, especially if you have luggage. In many large cities, there is road side parking (in the blue lines), for which one pays 1 Euro per hour. Tickets obtained from street meters must be placed on the dashboard.
