16. Mandatory Third Party Liability Insurance
We are required by the laws to insure our Vehicles against liability for the claims or actions of Third Parties. Third Party Liability insurance is therefore automatically included as part of our vehicle hire services and you will be covered for the consequences others may suffer as a direct result of your actions whilst you are driving the Vehicle up to the level legally required.
16.1. What am I covered for ?
You will be insured against liability for the following damage that you cause when you are using the Vehicle: ● bodily injury or death suffered by Third Parties; and
● property damage sustained by Third Parties and losses and costs arising as a consequence of the damage.
16.2. What is excluded from the cover ?
Third Party Liability insurance does not cover:
● bodily injury or death that you (the driver at the time of the collision) may suffer; or
● any damage to or loss of your personal property or possessions; or
● any damage caused to the Vehicle
16.3. What is the amount of my financial exposure for Third Party Liability ?
You will be covered for the sums owed as a consequence of any Third Party Liability arising as the result of a collision that you may cause provided you have not committed a breach of any applicable laws (including any relevant road traffic regulations) or the Local Rental terms and conditions.
However, if you didn’t comply with those laws and/ or regulations and/or the applicable terms and conditions then, whilst our insurer will still fulfil its obligations to Third Parties under the Third Party Liability insurance policy, it may seek to recover from you some or all of the costs it may have paid to that Third Party as a result of the incident.
