If he is under 25, that would be expected.

Yet, I don't necessarily understand this policy of charging for additional drivers over 25. I was told when we rented for a 2 week vacation the additional charge, and opted to save money (14 days of a daily charge quickly adds up.) It would seem if both meet Hertz qualifications period then it would even be a safer alternative. I found that doing all the driving during a two week vacation, in a strange country, can be more exhausting than just foregoing the vacation and staying at work. I wouldn't have minded having changed drivers during that one day trip from Omaha Beach France back to Germany.

Of course the autobahn was all mine
