EnglishWhat is an additional driver?
Before renting a car, it's a good idea to check with the rental company about specific additional driver policies and any associated fees and restrictions. This ensures that everyone authorized to drive has adequate insurance.
Essentially, licensed drivers include:
• Primary tenant: must meet age requirements, driver's license.
• Additional drivers: possible for a fee, and must meet the same requirements.
• Age restrictions: Drivers must be 25 years of age or older
• License Requirements: All drivers require a valid driver's license.
• Insurance coverage: Make sure all drivers are insured.
Adding an additional driver to your car rental offers convenience, safety and flexibility. This is especially beneficial for long trips, emergencies, group trips and business trips. It allows the sharing of driving responsibilities, ensures the continuation of the journey in case of driver fatigue or incapacity, adapts to different schedules and preferences within a group and is often essential for business travelers attending meetings or events in different locations.
1. When embarking on a long journey, having an additional driver can significantly improve your experience. Driving for long periods can be tiring, and having someone else share the driving responsibilities allows you to rest, enjoy the scenery and arrive at your destination more refreshed.
2. Family vacations often involve multiple destinations, sightseeing, and exploring new places. With an additional driver, you can take turns behind the wheel, making the trip more enjoyable for everyone. Additionally, if a family member is unwell or needs a break, another driver can take over.
3. In business travel, time is often of the essence. By having an additional driver, you can switch roles when needed. It also provides flexibility when a person needs to rest or attend to other work-related tasks.
4. When the main driver is unable to return the car to the destination, adding an additional driver to the rental contract allows this person to hand over the car. But note that the additional driver can only return the car, he cannot pick it up without the presence of the main driver.
