Taxi Book or Car Rental Conditions
Rental conditions:
Car
rentals are subject to many conditions which vary from one country to another
and from one company to another. Generally the vehicle must be returned in the
same condition it was rented in, and often must not exceed mileage
restrictions, otherwise extra fees may be incurred.
For
insurance reasons, some companies stipulate a minimum and / or maximum rental
age. In some cases, the minimum age for rental can be as high as 25, even in
countries where the minimum legal age to hold a driver's license is much lower.
It is not uncommon for there to be a young driver surcharge for all drivers
aged under 25.
In
all cases a valid driver's license is required in order to rent a vehicle, and
some countries require an International Driving Permit.
Recent
conditions have utilized GPS technology to limit maximum speeds or driving to
specific regions. Renewable fuel vehicles are available in certain areas.
The
majority of car rental companies require the use of a credit card to charge additional
fees should a defect be found with the car on its return or for road tolls,
motoring related fines or missing fuel. In lieu of a credit card some companies
require a large cash deposit or occasionally a debit card.
History of Car Rental, Hire Car or Car Hire
History of Car Rental, Hire Car or Car Hire
Horses,
chariots, carriages and the like have been rented since time immemorial. The
earliest known example of cars being offered for rent dates to 1904.
Joe
Saunders of Omaha, Nebraska is generally credited as the inventor of the car
rental business. He started with one borrowed Model T Ford in 1916, and by
1917, his Ford Livery Company was renting out 18 Model Ts at 10 cents per mile.
The company name became "Saunders Drive-It-Yourself System" and then
"Saunders System". By 1926, Saunders had expanded to 56 cities.
An
early competitor to Saunders was Walter L. Jacobs, whose Chicago-based
Rent-a-Car opened in 1918 with twelve Ford Model T. The sector expanded rapidly; in 1926, the
American Driveurself Association assembled over 1200 delegates in Chicago. Jacobs'
company became Hertz and Saunders' company was bought by Avis in 1955.

Car
rental companies operate by purchasing or leasing a number of fleet vehicles
and renting them to their customers for a fee. Rental fleets can be structured
in several ways – they can be owned outright (these are known as ‘risk vehicles’
because the car rental operator is taking a risk on how much the vehicle will
be sold for when it is removed from service), they can be leased, or they can
be owned under a guaranteed buy-back program arranged directly through a
manufacturer or manufacturer’s financial arm (these are known as ‘repurchase
vehicles’ because the manufacturer outlines the exact price of original sale
and of repurchase at the end of a defined term).
In
the UK, the registration of rental cars can be concealed by using unfamiliar
initials or subsidiaries, which can increase the resale value via manufacturer
or third party dealers. In North America, it is common to see rental companies
with their own branded second-hand car dealers where ex-rental stock is sold
direct to the public. Alternatively, auctions are often used such as Manheim
Auctions in the USA.
