What is the name of your state? DE
I am really worried. My fiancee rented a car from Hertz and he was the only authorized driver. I was driving that car in Florida and somebody hit us in the rear. We got a police report citing the other person as being completely at fault. However, first I was not legallly authorized to drive and second we did not take insurance from Hertz. We were using our own liability insurance(we dont have collision coverage) and for collision my fiancee used his visa platinum benefits. Now we got a letter from Hertz asking for our policy number for the charges.We called up visa people and they said that only the authorized driver can make a claim. I am stuck . We are planning to call Hertz claim department to talk to them. What should I do? Should I call the insurance company of the person who hit us and ask for damages? or will hertz do it??? also how much are they going to charge for breach of the rental agreement..I am graduate student and I dont knw anything about this . Please help in any way.
