Given the difficult road conditions, renting a car in Indonesia is not very popular. To be more precise, only drivers with a long driving experience can rent a car. If you still do not want to give up renting a car in Indonesia to have freedom of movement around this island state, we recommend renting with a driver. It makes sense not only for safety reasons, but also for financial benefits.
On average, the price of a car rental in Indonesia is IDR 200,000 per day. The cost of gasoline in Indonesia is not included in the price of car rental. On average, a liter of gasoline in Indonesia has a cost of 4500 IDR. If you want to rent a car with a driver, this service will cost you 500,000 IDR per day. Naturally, you can reduce the rental price by bargaining, which is welcome here.
If you want to drive an Indonesian car on your own, you must present it to the rental company:
- A passport
- International driver's license
- Order insurance
- Make a deposit
The penalties for traffic violations in Indonesia are quite impressive by local standards. For driving while not wearing a seatbelt, you will have to pay a fine of IDR 500,000, the fine for not having an international license reaches IDR 1,000,000.
In addition, according to the rules of the road in Indonesia it is necessary to adhere to the left-hand traffic, when maneuvering on the road it is customary to use sound signals. There is also a speed limit in Indonesia. In accordance with it, within the limits of a populated area you can move no faster than 40 km / h, outside the populated area is allowed to drive at a speed of 70 km / h, and on the highway - 100 km / h.
