Driving Tips for Kahului
Acquaint yourself with the local driving style for a successful rental car experience:
- Slow Down: You may find that local drivers observe the unique island time and pace on the roadways, driving slower than the speed limit.
- Rush Hours: Kahului and other areas of Maui may have traffic congestion during the afternoons, specifically toward the central valley from west Maui.
- Two Lane Roads: Kahului has mostly two-lane roads, so obstructions like construction can cause traffic jams. Allow extra time for travel, especially if you are covering a long distance.
- Mountain Roads: Take your time on curvy, windy roads. Allow adequate stopping distance between you and other cars.
- Hawaiian Words: You may see signage with words in Hawaiian. If possible, familiarize yourself with key words, or install a translator on your smartphone.

Otherwise, you’ll receive a comparable car in the same group with similar size and performance subject to availability.
