Top tips for renting a car in White Plains


While it's nowhere near as busy as its neighbor NYC, White Plains is still a booming town with lots of drivers and particularly, commuters. To guarantee yourself a stress-free visit to the area, brush up on these driving rules and recommendations prior to hitting the road.


What are the road rules and driving conditions in White Plains?


When driving anywhere in the US, always stay on the right-hand side of the road, wear a seatbelt, obey road signage, and adhere to local speed limits. As of 2024, White Plains has a citywide speed limit of 25 miles per hour (mph) unless otherwise posted. You'll only notice higher speed limits on major roads like Mamaroneck Ave, and these will always be clearly signed to avoid confusion.


In New York, U-turns are prohibited in a number of areas and situations, including at the top of hills, in school zones, and limited access expressways. Cellphone use while driving is heavily enforced – you cannot use a hand-held phone except in case of an emergency, and hands-free mode can only be used for making calls and accessing navigation. Texting behind the wheel is prohibited at all times. And, when it comes to parking, New York can be pretty strict – unlike the standard 12 inches from the curb rule adopted by most states, in NY, you must park within 6 inches of the curb.


Urban sprawl has well and truly affected the White Plains area, with lots of families and commuters relocating to the area for a slightly slower pace of life just a short distance from the Big Apple. As a result, expect some traffic on your visit to the area, particularly if you're traveling in peak time. The worst of it is likely to be on the I-287 and the Hutchinson River Parkway.


Like nearby New York City, White Plains often experiences extreme weather in both the summer and winter. Summers can be incredibly hot, with temperatures upwards of 90°F (32°C), whereas the winters tend to be freezing, with lows of 20 to 30°F (-6°C to -1°C) or colder, depending on the year. If you're driving in White Plains between November and February, it's advisable to select a rental car that has snow tires to keep yourself safe on the roads – you can filter by this feature on Turo. Always stay alert, check driving warnings before departing, and take precautions to keep yourself safe regardless of the season.


What is parking like in White Plains?


In White Plains, parking shouldn't be difficult to navigate. In the downtown area, you'll find ample on-street parking spots, most of which are metered by the hour. There are also quite a few parking garages if you're looking to park longer-term or need the security (always a good idea when you're renting a car!). Try the Hamilton-Main Garage (365 Hamilton Ave), the 15 N Broadway Garage, or the 70 Maple Ave Garage for convenient spaces around major landmarks, stores, and businesses.


Are there toll roads in White Plains?


Yes, there are two major toll roads in White Plains, NY. Both are technically on the New York State Thruway, however, one is on the I-87 portion, and the other (the Cross Westchester Expressway) is on the I-287 portion. If you're driving from White Plains into NYC, Albany, Yonkers, Poughkeepsie, or parts of Connecticut, you're very likely to pass through one or both of these roads.


So that you're equipped to navigate tolls encountered while traveling through the area, always plan your route ahead of time, and chat to your Turo host about the best way to pay for tolls in your rental car.


Are there gas stations and EV chargers in White Plains?


Both gas stations and electric vehicle (EV) charging stations are relatively easy to find in White Plains, New York. For fuel-based vehicles, the downtown area has a few options to fill up your tank, including the Gulf at 274 Hamilton Ave, the Royal Petroleum at 124 S Lexington Ave, and the bp at 43 Lake St. As you leave downtown and head further into the suburbs and nearby towns, you'll find even more gas station options from major providers including Mobil, Sinclair, and Shell.


For an EV charging station, stick to the downtown area where the most reliable options are, often housed in malls, hotels, and apartment complexes. There are Blink chargers at City Center and Westchester One, as well as an EVoke at 131 Mamaroneck Ave and a ChargePoint at The Source mall. If you're headed on a longer drive or further out of the downtown area, don't fret – there are often a few EV chargers dotted along major routes.


Do I need to rent a car in White Plains?


It's not imperative to have a car in White Plains, but we definitely recommend it, especially if you're relocating to the area or planning a journey through the state. White Plains is pretty walkable, and public transit is adequate, with a good bus system and frequent trains to New York City. However, for those looking to explore at their own leisure, a car is the best mode of transport. Find yourself the perfect vehicle on Turo, then set off on your scenic drive, quick commute down to NYC, or multi-state road trip.
