2. Don't Disregard Rental Car Insurance
Even Though You May Be Tempted
You're in the process of renting a car when the clerk asks you if
you'd like to purchase rental car insurance. It's just a few dollars
more per day and it will protect you from having to pay for any
damages that are incurred during your trip. You're trying to save
as much money as possible so your first thought is probably to
disregard the insurance. After all, you're a safe driver and you
don't foresee anything happening to this nice car that you're about
to take possession of.
3. What if something does go wrong
But hang on. What if something does go wrong? What if another
driver suddenly runs into you? What if the freeway overhead
collapses? What if there's a tornado or some other act of God?
Are you sure you want to risk having something happen to the car
which would cost you much more in the long run? You may want
to rethink your initial plan of disregarding the rental car insurance
and just go with it. It's not that much more and you'll feel better
knowing you're protected.
4. Don't Just Check The Box
Before you sign up for the extra rental car insurance, ask what it
covers. It may be easy to just check the box stating that you want
the rental car insurance but what if it doesn't cover certain things?
For instance, some rental car insurance won't protect you from
acts of God such as hurricanes or floods. They'll only protect you
if you're hit by another car or something to that effect. You want to
be completely clear before you sign up for the rental car insurance
so that you know exactly what you're paying for.
5. How Much Will It Cost?
Usually, when you rent a car, the process is so quick that you're at
the desk for a few minutes and the next thing you know, you're in
the rental car ready to go. It's not until you return the car that
you're bombarded with all these fees and extra charges you
weren't aware of. Don't make the process of signing up for the
rental car insurance a quick deal.
6. Ask plenty of questions
Take your time and ask plenty of questions. How much is the
rental car insurance going to cost you? Is it accrued each day or is
it bundled in one simple package? You don't want any surprises
awaiting you when you drop the car off so make sure you are
clear on everything the first time.
7. Renting a car can be a fun experience.
Renting a car can be a fun experience. After all, you get to try out
a new car for a little while and you can run up miles on a car that
you don't even own. However, anything can happen and you don't
want to pay for any damages that can occur if you don’t have to.
Therefore, sign up for the extra rental car insurance and have the
peace of mind in knowing that you're well covered in case the
unthinkable actually does happen.
