Getting into a car accident is stressful enough when you are driving your own vehicle. However, if you are involved in a car accident while driving a rental vehicle, it can be even more unnerving for a number of reasons. Simply the fact that the vehicle does not belong to you can make the situation more stressful. Even if you have a clear understanding of what your own auto insurance covers, as well as any additional insurance you may have purchased, it is highly recommended that you consult with an experienced car accident lawyer.
