We rented a car for a trip to one city, but then in the process the plans changed and we had to consider the option of going abroad. It was not possible to resolve the issue with the rental company, because there, according to the rental conditions, it turned out that the exit was not available. So we rented the car as planned and then rented it from another distributor. For the money, it turned out about the same.

Insurance really helped out. Even if the driving experience is large, you still need to take it, you never know what can happen. And when you are also abroad, it is best to protect yourself as much as possible. My position is this. Moreover, the rental prices for insurance are small.
