No insurance. If there is damage to the car, will it be deducted when returning the car? I didn't quite understand when I returned the car just now, and they didn't ask me to swipe my card again. Will it be automatically deducted from my credit card after I return to China ? United Kingdom Q&A
Can the expressway with tolls in the UK be the same as in China, with toll stations, taking cards, and paying cards and money at the next toll station? How much is the general toll ? United Kingdom Q&A

Is there a charge for adding an additional driver when renting a car? Can experienced friends please explain it to me? I haven't been to the UK for Road trip before and I don't know the regulations of local car rental companies ? United Kingdom Q&A
Urgent question about insurance I am in the UK and planning to sign Schengen. I want to know if I buy insurance, should I buy single trip or multi-trip? Where can I buy it more cheaply? Can I cancel it after I buy it? I really feel that insurance is useless, just to fool the embassy. Thank you ? United Kingdom Q&A
Hi, I will rent a car at Heathrow Airport and go around the island first, and then return to London for the last two days. Where is it more convenient to return the car when returning to London without entering the city? That is, after returning the car, it is convenient to take a taxi into the city ? United Kingdom Q&A
Yesterday we picked up a car from Hertz at Manchester Airport. We carefully inspected the car at the time, but today we noticed a small chip in the paint on the trunk lid. We are sure we didn't cause this damage. What should we do? Will they charge us for this when we return the car ? United Kingdom Q&A
Can anyone tell me if Enterprise doesn't provide a receipt after swiping the card? Today when I picked up the car, I swiped 720 pounds for the rental fee and deposit, but they didn't give me any receipt. Later, I saw the transaction reminder showing a deduction of 720 pounds with transaction type as consumption, which made me a bit uneasy. Would the car rental company deduct the deposit directly as a deduction ? United Kingdom Q&A
I really can't figure out the speeding problem when driving in the UK! The first few days I was not familiar with driving on the right, so I drove very slowly. There were always cars behind me, and I still got a speeding ticket! However, British people drive incredibly fast. Do they have a monthly speeding ticket ? United Kingdom Q&A
Yesterday when renting a car at Sixt Heathrow, we originally booked a Skoda Superb Estate. When renting the car, the waiter said the car was too small and tried to upgrade us to a BMW. I refused. The car looked very good and the boot was big enough to fit all four of our suitcases. However, the car showed that the tyre pressure was not enough, so they gave us a Mercedes 220 instead. But the car screen showed that we had to add AdBlue when we drove more than 700 miles. The waiter said we didn't have to worry about it. After we started driving, the screen showed that we had to add oil the next time we refuelled. After driving for an hour, we arrived in Oxford and the car started to lose power. We couldn't even get it to go fast. We could only drive slowly. In this situation, is there something wrong with the car that we need to call for roadside assistance? Have any of you ever experienced this ? United Kingdom Q&A
Okay, I rented from Sixt at Heathrow once. In contrast, Europcar charged me arbitrarily. I bought an intermediate insurance, and I wouldn't have to pay if the repair cost was less than 300 pounds if I crashed. However, I found that the left rear lampshade was damaged when I returned the car, but the lamp was still intact. They deducted nearly 400 pounds from me afterwards. Would it cost nearly 700 pounds to replace a new lampshade? Nonsense ? United Kingdom Q&A
I would like to ask all the group members: The official website of the UK transportation recommends the London Pass, saying it is convenient and offers discounts. 1. Besides downloading it on the phone, is there a physical card for this pass? Can it be obtained at the station? 2. The Oyster travel card is not an affiliated card of the London Pass, right? Which card is more suitable for a three-day stay in London? Thank you ? United Kingdom Q&A
