Car hire
There are rental agencies in all main towns. A cash deposit will be required if you are not paying by credit card. When hiring with a British driving licence, it is valid in Turkey without any age limit or restriction on how long the licence has to have been held.

Driving and petrol
You must carry the following equipment: two warning triangles, first aid kit, tool kit, tow rope and fire extinguisher. Driving at night is not recommended because of the lack of road markings, and the danger of hitting unlit tractors, pedestrians and animals.

Breakdown
If you have a breakdown on the motorway, go to the nearest service station and ask for help. By law you are required to carry two red breakdown triangles. The Turkish Tourism and Automobile Club (TTOK) provides roadside assistance and breakdown services as well as travel advice. Check your home breakdown insurance policy to see if it covers the whole of Turkey, or only covers some regions.
