DRIVING TIPS FOR OAKLAND

With so many things to see and do in Oakland, a car rental from Oakland airport makes sense to get around. Part of the Bay Area, Oakland is also the ideal base for discovering the cities of San Francisco and San Jose, as well as the vast state parks nearby.

Enjoy your time in Oakland and remember these driving tips for a safe journey:

• Oakland is a pleasant city to drive in and has less traffic to contend with than neighboring San Francisco. Avoid rush hour, when many commuters travel the Interstate 80W to San Francisco, and you should keep moving.
• A 12-mile drive across Oakland Bay Bridge to San Francisco should take about 25 minutes out of rush hour and is beautiful at night when the city and bridge is lit up. Don't confuse this with the Golden Gate Bridge, which you’ll find north of San Francisco.
• The speed limit on most streets in Oakland is 35 mph or less if you’re in a residential area. On the freeway the speed limit is 75 mph but look out for signs that reduce this on some sections of popular routes.
• The easiest way to park in Oakland is at one of the city-owned parking garages. There are plenty to choose from and your rental car will be safe.
• Keep your sunglasses to hand in summer as the sun’s glare can be bright and make driving difficult.
