Driving your Saskatoon rental car through Canada
Keep these driving tips in mind when navigating the roads of Canada.
Always drive on the right-hand side of the road.
Use signal lights whenever turning or merging lanes.
Be extra cautious driving through icy and snowy road conditions during the winter months. It is recommended to contact the rental office directly if you wish to request winter tires ahead of your vehicle reservation date.
Pay attention to road signs that indicate the speed limit (usually 50 km in urban areas, 60-80 km in rural areas, and 80-100 km on highways).
Using your mobile phone while driving is prohibited.
As one of the fastest-growing cities in Canada, Saskatoon is beginning to struggle with traffic congestion. It will help to have some patience when driving your car hire on Saskatoon roads during peak travel times.
