Like other U.S. states, Virginia requires everyone in car rentals in Alexandria to buckle up for safety. Children under seven years must be buckled into a child safety seat or a booster seat – but no specific height or weight requirement applies. While you can legally handle your phone in your car if you are stopped or parked, Virginia allows only hands-free phone operation for such actions as navigation, or talking with a headset or via Bluetooth while you are driving. Take care when dining out or having cocktails. Like most U.S. states, Virginia sets its a blood alcohol content level at 0.08% for drunk driving. However, even if you measure below 0.08% you can still be arrested, charged, and convicted with a DUI under that benchmark. Because regulations often change or are updated, it is best to check in with the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles prior to your trip.
It is legal to drive your rental car in Alexandria and throughout Virginia if you have a valid U.S. license. If you are visiting from another country, you can use a valid driver’s license from your country or an international driver’s permit. The international driver’s permit can be helpful when renting your vehicle, or even at a traffic stop, especially if your license is in a language other than English.
