UK fuel is extremely expensive, so a car is still the preferred choice. For those who have a lot of luggage, consider a station wagon. SUVs may not be the best choice for carrying luggage.

It is recommended to rent a travel car, as there are more available and they are more comfortable to drive.

Actually it's fine. I rented an SUV, considering the luggage. Four people ended up with 2 28-inch suitcases, 1 26-inch suitcase, and 2 carry-on suitcases. Plus several bags. The roads in the UK starting with A or B are fine. The country roads are narrower and right-hand drive, so you get used to it.

This morning I went to the hotel to store my luggage. I stopped by the taxi parking line at the door to unload my luggage. The police came in less than two minutes. They gave me a ticket. I was standing next to the car at the time and couldn't even say I would leave right away. It's really unfortunate. I returned the car after storing the luggage. In the end, I lost a lot in the last few minutes. Could someone help me see how to pay the fine ? United Kingdom Q&A
