Is it Possible to Rent a Car without Insurance?

November 8, 2010

Renting a car without insurance is possible if you already own a vehicle. Your car's comprehensive coverage will also cover your rental in the event the vehicle is involved in an accident. Although many renters believe that you must take the car insurance offered by the rental firm, you can safely check the waiver box and let your own insurer handle it. In general, rental firm-offered liability or accident and theft coverage can add roughly $30 per day to a car rental. This is money that can be saved by initialing the waiver block on the form, and placing any insurance issues with your own carrier.
