As the rental-car companies -- at least in the U.S. -- are quick to point out, LDW (loss/damage
waiver) is
not insurance; it is simply a waiver of the rental-car company's right to pursue the renter in the event that loss or certain types of damage occur while the car is rented to the renter.
See, for example:
