Tips for renting a car in Prince George
Browse helpful tips for renting a car in Prince George including age restrictions, car type suggestions and more. Tips were last updated on 18 December 2024.
- Prince George experiences cold and snowy winters, which can create challenging driving conditions. It is essential to have winter tires on your vehicle, as they provide better traction on snow and ice. Be prepared for sudden weather changes, which can lead to poor visibility and slippery roads. Drive at reduced speeds and keep a safe following distance in snowy or icy conditions. The city uses sand and salt to manage road conditions but be watchful for icy patches and snow buildup. Always carry a winter emergency kit in your car, including items like blankets, a flashlight, and a snow shovel.
- Prince George has a mix of urban and rural roadways. The city’s layout is straightforward, but some areas can become congested, particularly during peak hours. Be mindful of heavy truck traffic, as the city is a hub for the forestry and mining industries. When driving in rural areas around Prince George, be alert for wildlife crossings, particularly at dawn and dusk. The use of GPS can be helpful for navigating both in the city and in the more remote areas surrounding it. Parking is generally available, but it's always good to check parking regulations in the city center.
- Familiarize yourself with local driving customs and regulations. In Prince George, like the rest of British Columbia, it is important to adhere to the rules of the road, including speed limits and traffic signals. Be courteous to other drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists. During the winter months, ensure your vehicle's lights and windshield are clear of snow and ice for visibility. In rural areas, drive cautiously on narrow and winding roads, and be prepared for unexpected conditions like fallen trees or rockslides, especially after heavy rains or storms.
