Any matters not stipulated in these Terms or the Detailed Provisions shall be governed by applicable laws or standard business practices.
We may enter into special agreements with the renter provided they do not violate the intent of these Terms, related laws, or customs. In such cases, the special agreement shall take precedence over these Terms.
If someone other than the renter will drive the vehicle, the renter must inform that driver of all responsibilities and obligations outlined in these Terms and ensure compliance.
