Make sure that the rental service is legit
The thing about renting a car is that it comes with its risks. There have been several scam incidents involvingluxury and sports rental cars. It’s not something unheard of. Your best bet is to ensure that the rental service you are getting the car from has a good reputation. How to do that? Well, you can find a lot about a business with a simple Google search. Go through the company reviews and see what sort of experiences people have shared about renting a car from that particular company. Be sure to do your homework, it could save you from a lot of trouble.
Ask questions
Once you are at the car rental service, don’t hold back from asking your rental agent the right questions before you sign the rental agreement. Ask them what happens if you delay the return? What are the terms for extension or early return? Although, it would all be mentioned on the rental agreement, it’s a good idea to request a copy of the agreement for yourself.
Make the video evidence of the existing damages
One of the most common rental car scams around the world is overcharging the renters for damages. Unless the car has just come out of the showroom and you are the first person renting it, chances are, it would have some sort of external or internal damages on it. Make a video and take photos of such damages be it a minor scratch on the exterior and share it with your rental agent so you may steer clear of any dispute while returning the car.
Follow the road rules and drive within speed limits
The last thing you want is to be fined for violating the local traffic rules. UAE takes traffic violations quite seriously and one can determine that by the type of cars it has commissioned for the police force. You cannot possibly outrun Ferraris and Lamborghini’s with emergency lights rolling on their top.
