Let me get this straight: You plan to rent a $30,000 car and hand the keys over to your 15-year-old daughter who is just learning to drive, and you want to know if any car rental company is willing to allow this?

I can't help but asking (with tongue only partially in cheek): Why are you willing to allow this?

In all seriousness, car rental drivers must be authorized by the car rental company, and I couldn't find any company who would, in any case, authorize someone under 18 to drive a rental car. Even if there were, it probably would rank way up on the list of Truly Bad Ideas.
