Opting for a compact car rental in Lake Forest makes perfect sense if you plan on staying within the city center. With your compact rental car, you can easily squeeze into the few parking centers available within the city center. Compact cars are also ideal for driving through some of the narrow streets in Lake Forest. However, if you plan of traveling beyond the city center, then you are better off going for an economy rental. And if you are coming to Lake Forest with a family or a group of friends, then you are better off renting an SUV or a van that has a greater capacity.
The speed limit in Lake Forest varies. If you are driving around residential areas, schools and commercial streets, then be sure to keep your speed limit at 20mph or less. Once you get to the major streets, then you can drive at 30mph. The speed limits on expressways and interstates are 60mph. Even if you cannot see a speed sign, be sure to observe these speed limits. After all, the last thing you want is to be pulled over and ticketed for speeding. All in all, be sure to maintain a safe speed, especially if you are driving on wet roads or at night.
Finding parking in Lake Forest city center is difficult thanks to the limited number of available slots. That said, you can find budget-friendly parking lots like Refinery Parking Lot, Lower Parking Lot and Aliso Creek Parking Lot. Still, you can get hourly parking lots downtown at around $2 per hour. Nature Park and Meadowood Park parking lots are located outside the city center and are equally pocket-friendly.
