Someone, please, tell me this isn't true!!
I had a person from my home town who travels to D.R. 4 times a year and knows a lot of people there tell me that I might not want to consider renting a car because in the D.R. you have to leave your passport with the person you rent the car from. Can this possibly be true???? I am not comfortable with that at all! Passports are important pieces of identification. I like to keep mine locked in the room unless I need it for identification when cashing travellers cheques, or using my visa/mastercard, etc.
If this is so, I do not think I would be comfortable with that, as I am sure teh other people travelling with me will not.
What are my options.
Just wondering if anyone can shed any light on this please.
Again, thanks in advance!!
