ABSOLUTELY – If you don;t get it – any little scratch and YOU have to pay the entire repair bill, which will be 10 times higher than you expect it to be

You are required and it also would be an intelligent thing to do. anyone driving around without any type of insurance shouldn’t be able to drive.

Check with your insurance company. They may offer a non-owners insurance policy for situations like yours.

No, you are not required to get the insurance. Check your credit card benefits. Sometimes they provide insurance if you use the credit card to rent the vehicle.

no you are not required to purchase the rental coverage , but if you do have an accident the rental car company can and will come after you for the damages including sending you to a collection agency and informing credit agencies

Most car rental locations carry liability coverage for their vehicles, so check the one you want to rent from to make sure basic public liability and property damage would be included in your rate. This would not cover damage to the rental car, so as others have stated, you should check to see if you have any coverage for that through your credit card, or you could purchase the ldw or cdw from the car rental company directly.http://www.best-car-rental-tips.com/rent…

No, you aren’t required as the car rental place has their own insurance, but if you don’t get the insurance from them, then you would be on the hook for any damages incurred in a accident or whatever… Some credit cards include rental insurance automatically if you use the card to pay for the rental, but you need to read your credit card agreement for the details.
