Liability and Insurance:

Saferide Car Rental provides several insurance options to protect you during your rental:

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW):

The car's basic damage coverage protects you if the car's bodywork gets damaged. However, Collision Damage Waiver typically has an excess, which is the amount you would have to pay towards repairs. The participation fee/deductible amount varies depending on the type of car, usually ranging from P10,000.00 to P35,000.00. CDW covers only the car's bodywork. Any damage to windows, wheels, undercarriage, interior, or personal belongings will require you to pay the full cost of repairs and any administration charges.

Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI):

Supplemental Liability Insurance typically covers damages to other people's property, such as their cars, and medical costs for injuries in an accident. The maximum coverage for property damage is P100,000.00, and for physical injury, it is also P100,000.00.

Personal Accident Insurance (PAI):

Personal Accident Insurance provides coverage for drivers of a rental car and their passengers in case of accidental medical costs, emergency care, and accidental death during the rental trip. The coverage limit is up to P50,000.00 per person. However, it's important to note that this insurance policy does not cover injuries sustained by individuals renting motorcycles from Saferide Car Rental.

Fault and Negligence:

In the event of a vehicle accident or damage caused by a fortuitous event where the renter is not at fault or negligent, the renter is only responsible for the participation fee of the vehicle, whichever is higher, unless covered by an insurance policy. If the cost of repair, damage, and consequential liabilities are covered and recoverable from an insurance policy, it is immaterial as to whose fault or negligence caused the damage. However, if the renter is at fault or negligent in driving the car, they shall be liable for the entire amount.

Extension of Rental:

If the renter wishes to extend the rental period beyond the previously agreed return date and time, they should immediately inform Saferide Car Rental. Failure to follow the extension procedure will be considered a violation of this rental agreement.

Mechanical Failure and Damages:

Saferide Car Rental takes precautions to prevent mechanical failures. However, we shall not be liable for any mechanical failure of the vehicle or consequential damages. The renter shall not make any claims against Saferide Car Rental for delays caused by breakdowns or accidents. Repairing or changing any part of the car without the prior knowledge and written approval of Saferide Car Rental is prohibited. The renter shall be responsible for damages to the car resulting from their negligence.

Trips Outside the Province:

If the renter plans to take a trip outside the province, they must notify Saferide Car Rental in writing of their intentions. Failure to do so will make the renter responsible for all costs related to fixing any engine or mechanical trouble that occurs during the trip. Additionally, the vehicle should only be driven by an authorized driver; otherwise, the renter will be in breach of the agreement.

Release of Liability:

The renter releases Saferide Car Rental from any liability for loss or damage to any property left, stored, or transported by the renter or any other person in or upon the vehicle before, during, or after the rental period. The renter agrees to hold Saferide Car Rental harmless, defend, and indemnify against all claims and costs based on or arising from such loss or damage.

By proceeding with the rental, you acknowledge and agree to abide by the above terms and conditions.
