Car sharing is not a new phenomenon – many people use car sharing service around the world, one of them called Zipcar which is a US based company.
What is car sharing?
You can basically book a car online or over the phone 24/7 every day. You can make your reservation minutes or up to 1 year in advance. Zipcar also offer an iPhone and Android application which makes car sharing even more easier. You can honk the horn to locate a Zipcar and unlock the doors too. You need to be a member – a so called “Zipster” – to use the Zipcard.
What kind of insurance is included in car sharing?
Zipcar also provides $300,000 per accident in liability coverage, the driver must be over 21. According to their policy: “Members at fault are responsible for the first $750 of costs related to the repair, recovery, and loss of use of any Zipcar vehicle.”
