Hi,

I will be having a trip in LA and Anaheim in early August and wish to spend a few days in Las Vegas. I'm planning to drive from Anaheim to Las Vegas and have a few concerns about driving in the desert.

Since the temperature will be quite high during the summer time, should any precaution be considered before starting the trip to Vegas? I will rent a car for 2 weeks so I might ask the rental company to have the preparation for me. By the way, I'm not living in US and not familiarize with the traffic rules here (though I am driving in France). Anything I should aware of?

Will it take 4-5 hours for a one-way trip?

Thanks.
