Major cities in the state, like Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, have pretty robust public transportation systems, so a car is not always necessary, but rather an added luxury. Outside these cities, however, Pennsylvania tends to be primarily made up of rural countryside and small towns that do not have much in the way of public transportation, such as Lancaster and Allentown. To move around these areas, you will definitely need to rely on having access to your own vehicle, especially if you plan on visiting Amish Country during your time in the region.
As a lot of Pennsylvania can be rather rural, you will always want to keep your eyes open for animals crossing the road. It is not uncommon to see deer, skunks, or foxes running. The Pennsylvania Turnpike also has quite a few tunnels, so be prepared to drive in these and always make sure that your headlights are on. Due to the fact that Pennsylvania is in the northeast, the state can receive quite a bit of snow in the winter. If you are visiting during this season, make sure that your rental is properly equipped with chains and winter tires.
Like most states in the United States, Pennsylvania requires individuals to be at least 21 years old to rent a vehicle. If you are renting a car and you are under the age of 25, it is likely that you will be required by your rental agency to pay an additional extra fee each day for being a young driver. You will also need to have had your driving license for at least one year before you are legally able to rent a car. Your license cannot be restricted in any way or be expired.
