Documents you'll need You’ll need a driving licence, passport and a credit card to rent a car in San Francisco. Most visitors can use their regular driving licence. If it isn’t in English, bring an International Driving Permit (IDP). Rental companies also check that your ID matches your booking and payment card. |
Navigating city driving San Francisco has steep hills, one-way streets and busy junctions. Navigation apps help you avoid the steepest routes and guide you through the city’s grid. Traffic slows near Union Square and the Embarcadero, especially during peak hours. |
Tolls, emissions zones and charges Several bridges around San Francisco have tolls. Tolls are collected electronically and billed to your rental car. The city has no emissions zones, and driving is free apart from parking fees. |
Parking your car in San Francisco Parking is limited in central areas, so car parks are easiest. Street spaces fill quickly near major attractions. Multi-storey car parks offer safer options around downtown and Fisherman’s Wharf. Always check signs, as time limits and fees vary. |
Finding fuel or charging points Fuel is easy to find, and EV charging stations in San Francisco are widespread. Petrol stations sit on main roads and in suburbs. The city has many chargers, including fast options in car parks. Apps like PlugShare help you find available chargers. |
Local driving style and tips Drivers are steady, but hills and traffic need extra attention. Use low gear on steep descents and take care at four-way stops. Traffic can be heavy downtown, and cable car crossings require caution. Keep speeds steady and watch for quick lane changes. |
