I added an extra day in Auckland and wanted to rent the car for an extra day. The car rental company quoted me 120 NZD because the extra day was over 24 hours. But I wanted to say that I didn't exceed 24 hours the day before. Then a woman came and said she would give me a discount, but in the end, she said it would cost 600 RMB, which was even more expensive than before. I was so drunk that I didn't even want to rent it anymore. I wonder if you guys have encountered such things and how you handled them ? New Zealand Q&A
Hello everyone, Starting from October 1, 2019, winter tires are required for most highways in British Columbia, Canada. According to the BC government website, these tires must be marked with the Mountain Snowflake symbol or the Mud and Snow (M+S) symbol. I'm wondering if all car rental agencies at Vancouver International Airport (YVR) provide vehicles with at least M+S tires (all-season tires) as standard equipment. Thank you for your replies ?

Do I need to wash the car when returning it? Many people say no, but there are also car owners who have been charged cleaning fees and management fees, saying they were ripped off. I think it's up to your own judgment! If it's too dirty, washing it won't cost much. This is not a reason for certain car rental companies not to charge you ? Germany Q&A
Avis returned the car at night, not overdue, the car was in good condition, and returned with a full tank of gas. The next day, I was fined over 200 euros, and on the fourth day, I was fined over 20 euros. I only paid a deposit of 180 euros, and I feel like the car rental company can just charge my credit card as they please. Has anyone else experienced this ? Italy Q&A
Hello everyone, yesterday I went to pick up a car. I rented an Audi A4 station wagon. The car rental shop kept asking me to upgrade to an off-road vehicle, the X5, saying that the road conditions in the Scottish Highlands were poor and that the A4 had too low of a chassis. I didn't take their advice. Can any friends who have driven in Scotland tell me, what are the road conditions like, and is an off-road vehicle absolutely necessary? We're leaving tomorrow, thank you ? United Kingdom Q&A
Hello. I have looked at the file you sent, which is mainly aimed at several highways in California. I wonder if there is a solution for post-payment of tolls specifically for the city of Boston? Without rental car equipment, I went in and out of the city of Boston once from the airport and saw two electronic toll collection devices. I searched on the Internet and it seems that rented cars cannot be post-paid, I wonder if this is true. I beg the expert to guide me ? United States Q&A
Can anyone who has returned the car in Florence city tell me? The address is Via Borgo Ognissanti 137/R Florence, IT 50123. I'm worried about entering ZTL, but the return point is actually within the ZTL. I asked the car rental company but they didn't reply. Even if I set Google Maps to avoid tolls, it's still not working and I will definitely enter the restricted area. It's really worrying ? Italy Q&A
At that time, it was agreed that if the car was returned more than 2 hours late, a fee of 45 euros would be charged. After returning the car, I was charged 386 euros the next day, and they said the fee was calculated based on the store price that day. I only spent more than 2000 euros in total for the four-day rental car. If you delay it for 3 hours a day, you will deduct more than 3000 euros from me? Robbery ? Austria Q&A
Can Alamo rent a car to cross Bosnia and Herzegovina from Serbia? When I made the reservation, the car rental company clearly said that I could just pay the fee. Just now, when I looked at the order, the crossing of Bosnia and Herzegovina became waiting for confirmation. Have you encountered such a situation before? Can this still cross Bosnia and Herzegovina? Thank you ? Saudi Arabia Q&A
I'm picking up a Chrysler midsize MPV from Philadelphia Car Rental, and when I got there, there was a freshly waxed Toyota Sienna. So I asked the rental company to switch vehicles. Because the car was wet, I didn't check it carefully, and only after I drove off did I realize that there was a long scratch from top to bottom on the right side of the car. I wonder if there will be any problems when I return the car? Have any of your friends had similar problems ? United States Q&A
I would like to ask everyone, I rent a car in Austria and will leave for Prague tomorrow. When I am close to Prague, can I buy the highway ticket at the convenience store of the gas station and stick it on the upper right corner of the windshield? Then when I drive from Prague to Budapest, do I need to buy the highway ticket at the gas station close to Hungary? The staff at the rental center told me that Hungary does not give highway ticket stickers. So what are the documents given? Do I need to carry them while driving? Thank you ? Austria Q&A
Please ask everyone, when I see someone's travel notes mentioning that in January, overnight parking in Norway requires electricity to protect the car and start the next day. What kind of device is this? Will the car rental company provide it? If not, will the car not start the next day if parked outdoors ? Norway Q&A
Guys, how to handle traffic violations in the United States? Can I check and pay by myself? It is said that the car rental company will charge a lot of money for proxy payment... In Boston, there is a sign indicating that the red light cannot turn, but I turned by accident... In New York, I found that it was one way after driving into the alley and went back... I rented a car from Hertz.. ? United States Q&A
Who knows how to pay the toll for the 520 floating bridge in Seattle? We only found out that there was a toll when we drove on the 520 floating bridge yesterday. There are two ways to pay: one is to use the Good to Go electronic toll system, and the other is to mail in a bill and pay a fee. We didn't have the Good to Go system, so we drove through the mail-in toll lane. Now we don't know how to pay? Because it's a rental car ? United States Q&A
