Permissive Users of Rental vehicles

A permissive user of a rental car is covered under the rental insurance policy although it might be secondary to the renter's policy. Transportation Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland Se. 18-102(b) indicates the security will cover the owner of the vehicle and each person driving or using the vehicle with the permission of the owner OR lessee. Thus, if the lessee gives permission there is coverage. See Enterprise Leasing Co. v. Allstate Insurance Co., 341 Md. 541 (1996). The required coverage is the same as required under Transportation Article Sec. 17-103(b)(4). Read more about permissive users of rental vehicles
