Driving Tips in Nashville
Driving in Nashville is relatively simple, but these tips will make you feel at ease driving your SIXT rental car in Nashville:
- Speed limits: Expect speed limits of approximately 30 mph within the city limit, 35 mph to 65 mph on undivided rural roads, and up to 70n mph on the freeways.
- Flashing red lights: If you encounter a flashing red light at an intersection, treat it like a stop sign.
- Floods: Heavy rains occur in Nashville during the summer months. Don’t drive through flooded areas because the water may be deceptively deep.
- Snowy conditions: Although Nashville is a southern city, it occasionally experiences snow. However, many drivers are not used to snowy conditions. Proceed with caution and be mindful of other vehicles on the road.
- Parking: Finding a spot in downtown Nashville or on the weekends can be difficult. Use our Nashville parking guide to find the best garage, metered, and free parking.

Reservations are by vehicle category (“or similar”), not by an exact model. When a "guaranteed model" option is shown for your dates and location, selecting it reserves that specific model. Otherwise, you’ll receive a comparable car in the same group with similar size and performance subject to availability.
The exact mileage policy for your booking is shown during the reservation process, so you’ll know what’s included before pickup.
