  • Find your perfect ride with Enterprise, Hertz or Avis. They're some of the most trusted providers in the city.

  • Check if a collision damage waiver (CDW) is part of your Murrieta car hire policy, whether with Enterprise or a different supplier. Some may charge separately for it instead of including it in the base rental.

  • Consider booking a one-way rental. You might be able to pick up a bargain if the provider needs to move its fleet around. Find the best available rates by selecting 'Return car to a different location.'

  • Avoid any unexpected charges by booking a ride with a 'Fair fuel policy.' Begin and end your trip with a full tank, paying only for what you use.

  • Take your time getting acquainted with your rental. Adjust your seat and mirrors, find the lights and blinkers, and get a feel for its handling before you drive away. And remember to stick to the right side of the road in the United States.

  • Local speed limits can vary, but it's usually around 40kph in built-up areas and 110kph or so on highways. Always check the posted signs.

  • A blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit of 0.08% applies in the United States. The only sure way to stay legal to drive is to skip the drinks.

  • Around 5pm is one of the busiest times for traffic in this destination. Try to avoid busy hours generally for a smoother drive.

  • The United States dollar (USD) is the currency you'll be using for day-to-day purchases and activities. Use cards when it's convenient, and keep a little cash when electronic payments aren't accepted.
