Q: Will my american driver's license be accepted to rent a car or do I have to obtain some other license to drive a rental car in a foreign country like Canada? Vancouver to be exact.
A: A valid US driver's licence is all you need - that, plus a credit card. Road speeds are given in kph - kilometers per hour - so you will have to be aware of the difference and watch the speedometer. Because most cars in Canada were made in the US, they have both miles and kilometers on the speedometer. 60mph is the same as 100 kph. And gas is more expensive in Canada, although it seems to keep creeping up on both sides of the border, doesn't it? Enjoy your visit to Vancouver.
