From Wikipedia,
the free encyclopedia A
car rental or car hire agency is a company that rents
automobiles for short periods of time (generally ranging from a few
hours to a few weeks) for a fee. It is an elaborate form of a rental
shop, often organized with numerous local branches (which allow a
user to return a vehicle to a different location), and primarily
located near airports or busy city areas and often complemented by a
website allowing online reservations.
Car rental agencies primarily serve
people who have a car that is temporarily out of reach or out of
service, for example travellers who are out of town or owners of
damaged or destroyed vehicles who are awaiting repair or insurance
compensation. Because of the variety of sizes of their vehicles, car
rental agencies may also serve the self-moving industry needs, by
renting vans or trucks, and in certain markets other types of
vehicles such as motorcycles or scooters may also be offered.
Alongside the basic rental of a
vehicle, car rental agencies typically also offer extra products
such as insurance, global positioning satellite (GPS) navigation
systems, entertainment systems, and even such things as mobile
phones.
Rental conditions
Car rentals are subject to many
conditions which vary from one brand to another. The vehicle must be
returned in a good condition and must not exceed a maximum driven
distance, otherwise extra fees may be incurred. Additionally, some
companies set a minimum age for the vehicle driver, which in some
cases is as high as 25, even in countries where the minimum legal
age to hold a driver's license is much lower. In all cases a valid,
current driver's license is required in order to rent a vehicle.
Recent conditions have utilized GPS
technology to limit maximum speeds or driving to specific regions.
Renewable fuel vehicles are available in certain areas.
The vast majority of car rental
companies require the use of a credit card to make it easier for
them to trace a person should they attempt to steal a car, or to
charge additional fees at will if a defect is later found with the
car.
