Insurance Exclusions

The insurance coverage does not extend to damages resulting from deliberate misuse of the vehicle, driving on unauthorized roads, dirt roads, violation of the Road Traffic Code, driving under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or other substances. Furthermore, coverage is not provided unless the following procedures are followed: In case of damage or accident, the driver must immediately contact our company to activate the accident care process from the insurance and immediately call the police (tel. 112). Non-compliance with the above instructions means that the customer will be charged the full cost of the damage. Additionally, renters must wait for the arrival of the insurance company and the police to draft an accident report, a copy of which must be submitted upon the vehicle’s return. Damages resulting from non-compliance with laws or unauthorized use of the vehicle are not covered by insurance, and the renter assumes the full cost of damages. All cars are equipped with a geographic positioning system for the safety of the vehicles and passengers.

The renter is also responsible for:

Loss or damage of keys and spare keys.
Tire and rim damage due to collision with a pothole or curb.
Damages to seats or extremely severe dirt inside the vehicle.
Damage from the use of incorrect or defective fuel, where the cost is entirely borne by the renter.
Transportation of items with City Car Rental vehicles is prohibited.

City Car Rental is not responsible for personal items that have been stolen or lost from the vehicle, for damages or accidents due to drunkenness or drug use by the driver. The police report must clarify if any of the parties involved were under the influence of alcohol or drugs. In case of theft, the customer must immediately notify the company and deliver the keys and the police report as soon as possible. Any damage must be reported immediately to the company. Failure to report leads to the customer being charged for all related expenses. Compliance with the Road Traffic Code is the sole responsibility of the renter and is not covered by insurance. All cars are equipped with a geographic positioning system for the safety of the vehicles and passengers. In case the renter causes damage and is liable, they must pay the corresponding deductible according to the vehicle category, and the car pickup will be from the company’s headquarters or will be charged with the corresponding delivery expenses. Any damage, regardless of liability, will be charged with a one-time management fee of €100.

TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS

The renter bears full responsibility for fines and damages due to non-compliance with traffic regulations, which are not covered by insurance. If the fines are not paid directly by the customer, we impose a processing fee of 20% in addition to the fine amount. Municipal police fines are charged 100% of the amount owed by law for fines on corporate and rental cars. In case of removal of license plates or towing of the vehicle by a crane, the cost is covered by the renter if the process is undertaken by City Car Rental.
