Hi,

I am planing a trip to CA for a few weeks. I am renting a car for most of the time, and considering Avis or Hertz because they have good reputation.

I dont have a car insurance, and I see this on Avis website:

"CALIFORNIA: Automobile Liability and Property Damage Protection is not included in the rental rate. The customer may provide automobile liability insurance through a personal insurance policy or may purchase Additional Liability Insurance."

so if I understand correctly I need to purchase a liability insurance at the counter. I will be paying with a Credit card that will cover my rental car with deductible so I don't need CDW or LDW.

can anyone explain me if I can buy liability just for certain days, for example, I rent a car for a long time, let's say a week but I am only going to use it only for 6 days, 1 day it will be parked in a garage, so I will have no liability to damage something by driving it. On that day I will go sightseeing with public transportation.

should I ask this question in Hertz's forum or it will be the same?

thanks a lot.
