Easirent Car Hire Services
With Gatwick Airport being the second busiest in all of Britain, it’s essential for there to be a good car service to get commuters to and from. Easirent provides car hire at Gatwick Airport and they continue to invest in new vehicles to expand their fleet, ensuring that they can meet the growing demand from the over 30 million customers who use the airport yearly. As a premier car hire business, Easirent believes that customer service should be exemplary, second to none. While there are many others offering the service at the airport, they believe their top-quality range of vehicles for hire and the personal service places them above their competition. Easirent allows for customers between the ages of 25 to 75 who have had their driver’s license for more than two years. There is unlimited mileage on their cars, but there are restrictions on vans hired. All rentals must be paid for by credit card, cash is not accepted. They allow for deals for their clients who book a car online and they do not tack on any hidden charges or cancellation fees. In order to pick up your vehicle customers will need to have their license, a credit card with the driver’s name on it and a second form of ID. Because travel can be stressful, even for the seasoned traveler, Easirent aims to make the transportation from the Gatwick Airport to the car hire, an easy one for their customers. With over 25 years of experience, they can be trusted to be reliable and professional.

Getting used to driving in America
If you're planning on heading to America for your next big vacation, it's worth doing some research first. This is especially true if you want to opt for car hire. USA road trips are the stuff dreams are made of, but they won't be much fun if you haven't prepared for the driving ahead of time. There are so many differences between driving in the UK and driving in America that planning is crucial. Here, we'll look at some of the main differences; giving you a helping hand in your preparation.
Americans drive on the left-hand side
Where Britons stick to the right-hand side of the road, Americans drive on the left-hand side. This is more disconcerting than it sounds and can take some time to get used to. Unfortunately, this isn't something you can really prepare for (unless you have a private piece of land upon which you can mark out a practice route) but if you're at least aware of it ahead of time, then you won't get a shock when you turn up in New York, Las Vegas or wherever you are heading.
Most cars have automatic gears
In America; few cars have manual stick gearboxes. Instead, cars are usually equipped with automatic gears; something which some find easy, others not so much. It can be strange getting used to only moving the gears up and down, rather than up, down, left and right. You could try renting an automatic car in the UK prior to your trip, giving you a chance to get used to it - or, one of your friends or family members might have an automatic car they could insure you on for the day. Even getting in a half day or day's worth of practice could help you out.
The USA's roads are very spacious
This is something that could actually benefit you when driving in America for the first time. The roads are wide and spacious, giving you more room in which to relax. In Britain, most roads are fairly narrow; some nigh on impossible. This isn't true in the States, but it doesn't mean you can become complacent; it's simply something different to get used to.
Many terms are different
Many of the terms we're used to using in the UK are different in the US. For example, where we would say 'give way' in the UK, the Americans unusually say 'yield'. Our 'unleaded' petrol is 'regular' in America, whilst their 'highway' is our 'motorway'. What's more, American residents refer to roundabouts as a 'rotary', traffic lights as 'signals' and estate cars as 'station wagons'. You should also keep an eye out for the 'commuter lane', a special lane designed to house traffic going in different directions at different points throughout the day. If you get into trouble, look out for a 'cruiser' - the American term for a police patrol vehicle.
This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the driving differences between Britain and America, but it should give you a brief indication of just how different it is. Why not read up some more prior to your trip? You'll be glad you did when faced with your first American drive.
