Suitable hired car insurance

As nice as the holiday can be, unforeseen incidents should never be excluded. Especially not if you have booked a cheap hired car. Prevention is usually better than cure. Therefore, it is advisable to take out an appropriate insurance package. A comparison of the individual providers is therefore enormously worthwhile. Basically, a liability insurance is necessary to be able to hire the vehicle at all. Comprehensive insurance and theft insurance can be added.
