I would think it would be more risky to rent someone coming from outside of the area since that person would be physically GONE by definition in a few days/weeks/etc. Also that person isn't more familiar with the area so there is more chance of the person getting into an accident. (Unless that is some how the companies bank on it to make more money)
You'd think so, but the rental car companies have experienced otherwise, hence the rules some impose on local renters.
