SOME
ADVICE ON CAR RENTAL
Before
you leave home - Ensure thay you are carrying both your
picture and paper driving licences. The paper licence is essential as it shows
any endorsements you may have.
When
you collect the car:
- Check
the vehicle for damage
- Check
the spare tyre
REMEMBER:
- When
you pick-up your vehicle determine where the drop off point is for your return
- Ask
if the return area has an attendant. If not, who do you return the car to?
- If
you leave the vehicle without check-in, examine it for damage and photograph it
from every angle.
- Drink
drive laws vary from country to country - for example in Italy if you have a glass
of wine and a grappa with dinner and you are stopped by the police - you will
be fined.
- Know
your speed limits - these vary from country to country.
- Speed
/ Radar cameras certainly apply to rental cars as well! The rental company will
be notified and the renter contacted by the authorities. Speed traffic camera
information is now being sent from one country to another. e.g. someone caught
speeding with a French registered car in Italy will find that the fine will be
reported to the French authorities if it is not paid.
- Check
with the Hire company if you can take the car out of the country you are renting
in.e.g. Going from France into Italy or if renting in Ireland can you take the
car into Northern Ireland or into the Republic of Ireland.
