Is it necessary to buy Rental Car Insurance even though i have my car insurance policy with me?
- 1 Comment
I have a car and have taken Auto insurance for it.
Now my question is if i take a rental car, then my auto insurance policy for my car covers it or i need to take separate insurance for the rental car? When i took the auto insurance policy, they have taken my car details and its present in the insurance card also.
If i need to take insurance for rental car, what type of insurance do i need to take excluding my auto insurance policy coverage that applies to all cars?
Also if i am driving someone else car, will my insurance cover if there is any accident i have made?

When you rent a car, you have to have full coverage on the care that you own (your personal vehicle) and then that will automatically carry over to the rental. If you do not have full coverage you can add it to your existing policy for the amount of time you’ll be renting the car OR just buy the insurance from the rental place. And to answer your other question, no your policy will not cover somebody else’s car just because you’re driving it. Insurance covers vehicles, NOT people, even if you were in an at fault accident, your friend/relative’s insurance would have to cover that loss.
