A popular choice when using car hire in Brighton is an intermediate-type car that will get you around the city centre with ease and allow for longer distance travel out of the city. If you’re planning on a long-distance trip, you might consider an SUV with more luggage space or even a van if you are travelling in a group. It depends on your travel plans, but an SUV is a more comfortable car to drive. An automatic transmission car is also a good idea for the inner city.

There are varying speed limits within Brighton central, but the general rule is a speed limit of 40 km/h; this is to keep the city streets safe even with a large number of cyclists and pedestrians. The smaller streets can go as low as 20 km/h, so you need to keep your eye on the speed signs very carefully. You don’t want to be caught off guard when the speed limit changes from one street to the next.

There are varied parking options throughout the city of Brighton, but it is best to choose a paid car park and then walk to the different areas of the city. You can choose to have paid street parking, but these are strictly time limited, so there are more options for all the drivers of the city. A wise option is to find a paid car park and leave your car there for the day whilst you explore the city. Parking becomes somewhat easier on the outskirts of the city.
