Pick-up trucks and compact SUVs ate the most common types of cars used in Odessa. This is mainly due to the relatively rough road surfaces, which have been affected by changing weather conditions throughout the year. An SUV is a good car to get if you’re looking for rental cars in Odessa since they can ride on the rough terrain without any problems. You can also get a pick-up truck, especially if you plan on going off-road to experience the great outdoors in this small Texan city.

Interstate 20 runs east-west through Odessa, so this is likely the road you will be using if you are planning to drive to the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Highways 450 and 191 run straight through the city, so many of the attractions in the downtown area will be along these roads. If you plan to drive to New Mexico, you will likely be using Highway 450 to exit the city of Odessa, as well.

The speed limits in Odessa are primarily dependent on the type of road you're driving on. Highways and freeways will typically have a higher speed limit, while alleyways and roads in school zones will have a lower limit. The speed limit on alleyways and school zones is 15 mph, while residential zones have a limit of 30 mph. If you’re driving on interstate highways, you should observe a limit of 70 mph. You should also know that in areas where speed limits posted are different, the speed on the sign is the one that takes priority.

If you are picking up a car rental in Odessa, you will need to have a valid driver’s license and a credit card in your name with sufficient funds. You must be at least 21 years old in order to rent a car in the state of Texas. If you are not a US citizen, you may also have to show an additional form of ID, such as a valid passport or an International Driver’s Permit. If your driver’s license is not in English, you will also need an official translation of your license.
