Under Californian law, children under the age of two must use a rear-facing car seat. Once a child is over the age of two, weighs more than 40 lbs (around 18 kg) or is taller than 40” (around 102 cm), they can use a forward-facing car seat or booster appropriate for their age and size. This requirement holds until a child is eight years old or at least 4’ 9” (around 150 cm). Above this age and height, boosters are often still recommended, with a seat belt being the minimum requirement.
In California, the general rule is that you must be at least 25 years old to hire a vehicle. You’ll also need to present your passport, a valid driver’s licence and a credit card for the security deposit. Many car hire agencies also require an international driving permit (IDP), so it’s worth picking one up in your home country before you depart for Los Angeles.
Some hire car agencies will allow you to drive into Mexico from LA. However, each car hire company has its own rules. Some won’t allow you to drive more than 250 miles (around 402 km) into Mexico. Others require that you hire your vehicle through a corporate account and purchase special insurance to do so. It’s generally also the case that you cannot book a one-way hire from LA to anywhere in Mexico.
