If you have no other collectible insurance, the free car-rental insurance provided by your credit card becomes primary coverage.

Since coverage varies from issuer to issuer -- and even from card to card issued by the same issuer -- it is always best to consult the written description of coverage that came with your card, and/or call the card issuer for clarification.
this is why i think and i also saw on a car rental tips that it would be wise idea to get the comprehensive and collision coverage removed from my personal auto insurance coverage, so if and when there is an accident with the rental car, i dont have to shell out $500 or $1000 whatever the deductible of my personal coverage and card company is supposed to be in charge?
i might also buy the AMEX PREMUIM RENTAL protection since i am driving the buffalo NY rental car to canada, not familier with canadian roads and streets
