Supplemental Liability Insurance | Budget Truck Rental

Supplemental Liability Insurance

Budget now has Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI) available at participating U.S. locations. SLI protects you against bodily injury and property damage claims made by others in a covered accident with the Budget truck up to a combined single limit of $1 million. It’s an “Excess Vehicle Liability Insurance Policy” that provides additional liability insurance, within specified limits, above the limits provided in the Budget Rental Agreement.

SLI insures you, and authorized operators as defined in the Budget Truck Rental Agreement, against claims made by third parties against you, the customer, for bodily injury/death and property damage caused by the use or operation of a Budget truck as permitted in the Budget Truck Rental Agreement. SLI is a separate insurance policy issued to Budget by ACE American Insurance Company. It is made available to you as the customer when renting a Budget vehicle if you elect to accept SLI for an additional daily charge as shown on the Budget Rental Agreement.

The SLI coverage limits equal the difference between the SLI maximum $1,000,000 combined single limit per occurrence and the liability protection limits under the Budget Rental Agreement. You and authorized operators are covered while driving your Budget truck within the continental United States. Coverage does not apply in Mexico or Canada.

Exclusions:

 

All exclusions, terms and conditions are stated in the policy; it is important that you read the policy carefully. The following highlights some of the exclusions that would preclude coverage:

  • If you or an authorized operator use, or permit the use of, your Budget rental vehicle in a manner that violates the Budget Rental Agreement
  • To the extent permitted by law, to personal injury or property damage to the customer, or authorized operators, or any member of your family or the driver’s family
  • “Uninsured Motorist”/”Underinsured Motorist” are not provided by the policy except in states where mandated by law up to a maximum amount of $100,000 or in such other amount as mandated by state law
