Absolutely, your personal insurance can transfer the coverage you have on your personal policy to the rental car thus saving you a good bit of money by not purchasing the coverage from the rental company. But before you do this speak with your agent and make sure your policy will transfer coverage to the rental car and that it has comprehensive and collission coverage to transfer. Many company offer transfer of coverage to the rental car but also there are many policies that do not provide this transfer of coverage. Make sure you have the correct kind. If there is any question, please go ahead and purchase the coverage offered by the rental company. I hope this is of assistance.

If you already have full coverage auto insurance, there is no need to purchase additional insurance for your rental car. The only event where you would need the insurance from EZ Car Rental, was if you were to get into an accident, they would cover the cost of the time lost for the rental. If you don't purchase their insurance and get into an accident, you will have to pay for the days they are out money for not being able to rent the car out.

You only get a rental if your policy specifies that you chose to pay extra to have rental car coverage. Having collision coverage is not the same thing as having rental. Collision coverage just covers the repairs to your vehicle. If you are not at fault for the accident, the other person's insurance will provide you with a rental car.
