Re: Car Accident.

Check with your insurance company to confirm whether you have coverage and whether an older person may rent a replacement car for you.

If you don't have this coverage, make the claim against the at fault driver's insurance company, and if all else fails, sue the at fault driver either for the cost of your rental or lost wages. Make sure that you can document everything.
