REQUIREMENTS

- Renters must be at least 21 years of age.
- Only the documented renter is permitted to operate the vehicle. Any violation of this policy is a breach of the rental agreement.

- Excessive clutch wear or transmission damage caused during the rental will be deducted from the security deposit.
