Rental Car/Insurance

Employees renting vehicles within the United States do not need to purchase the additional insurance offered by the rental company. The College’s vehicle/liability insurance extends to rental vehicles. The vehicle must be rented using a College Travel P-Card or a direct-bill corporate account for the insurance to apply. If the vehicle is rented using a College corporate credit card, the credit card program also provides insurance on rental vehicles (passenger cars only, vans excluded). Contact Amber Denny, Administrative Services, 315-859-4974. 

For vehicle rentals outside the United States, collision and liability insurance should be purchased from the rental company. The College’s vehicle insurance does not provide coverage for international rentals. 

Accident Reporting

If an employee is involved in an accident while driving a College rental vehicle, they should follow all the accident reporting procedures required by New York State. If another vehicle is involved, contact the local police department and request that they complete an accident report. If you have a camera or cell phone, take photos of the damage to both vehicles. Obtain complete information on the other driver - name, address, phone number, vehicle make/model/year, license plate #, and the insurance company. Provide the same information to the other driver but refer them to Amber Denny, Administrative Services, 315-859-4974, for any questions regarding the College’s insurance. Notify the rental car company and Administrative Services immediately of the accident. 

If the accident is minor, i.e., a rental car scraped on the way out of a parking lot, it is not necessary to contact the local police department. Document the damage (date, time, location, circumstances), take photos of the damage, report the incident to the rental car company, and forward the documentation along with your rental agreement to Amber Denny at adenny@hamilton.edu, 315-859-4974.
