Top tips for renting a car in North Dakota

  • Whether you’re traveling to North Dakota for work or leisure, a car rental service can help you get around and enjoy a scenic drive as you explore the hidden treasures in this great northern state. Becoming acquainted with the rules of the road in the Peace Garden State is a good place to begin. For starters, driving under the influence is a serious offense in North Dakota, just as it is throughout the nation. Punishment for drunk driving varies from license suspension to fines and even jail time in the most severe cases. It is always prudent to drive within the speed limits to avoid getting a ticket. The maximum speed you may drive in urban areas is typically 50 mph, while the maximum speed limit on highways is 70 mph.
  • Both driver and front-seat passenger are required to wear adjustable seatbelts while driving in North Dakota. Children under eighteen are also required to wear seatbelts, regardless of their location in the vehicle. Children under eight years old must be properly secured in a car seat. Violating this rule might incur a fine. North Dakota Century Code 39-21-01 requires all motorists to have their headlights on from sunset to sunrise, and also when it’s snowing, raining, sleeting, or when it’s foggy, and also during adverse weather conditions that create poor visibility. Therefore, it’s important that you rent a car with properly working headlights, especially if you’re visiting the state in the winter or planning to drive at night.
  • Winter months tend to be extremely cold and snowy in North Dakota. For this reason, make sure that you rent a car with a strong battery, as extreme cold is known to kill weak batteries. Also, be sure to check the wipers and fill the wiper fluid, the anti-freeze, and the oil. You’ll need a rental car with snow tires if you’re traveling to the state during winter. Before driving away from the facility with your rental car, ask someone if it has a head-bolt heater installed, and how and when you should use it. Always have an extra blanket or coat and an emergency medical kit when you drive in North Dakota in the winter. If you’re driving in the cities, always pay attention at intersections, as snow can pile up high and reduce your ability to see oncoming traffic.
