The extent of such third party insurance varies in different States and Territories and Apollo strongly recommends that all passengers take out their own Personal injury Travel insurance. if the renter is responsible for the accident the Vehicle’s third party insurance should cover the renter for the liability except where the renter has committed a breach of the Vehicle’s third party insurance, e.g. drink driving.
