Got a Parking Ticket in a Rental Car--Am I Legally Obligated to Pay?
    #21020054 -

The car is not in my name, it's a rental car that was paid for by my company. But obviously the rental car company has a copy of my driver's license and shit.

I'm assuming the ticket won't be billed to me, it will go to the rental car company. Can they transfer the ticket to me? Will my credit be fucked if I don't pay it, or will this be the rental company's fault?

Would the rental company have insurance for something such as this?

I would assume that you probably have to pay the ticket.

I'm sure this sort of thing happens all the time with rentals. I would just pay the ticket before the rental company tries tacking on additional handling fees or some other bullshit add on to make them even more coin in the process.

I just read this on another forum from somebody who worked in the auto business:

Quote:
Usually the rental car company will pay the ticket, and any late charges, when they are notified. They then either charge the credit card that you used to rent the car, or if that is not possible (declined charge) they will bill you and if you do not pay send the debt to collections.



But since my company is paying for the car, my credit card is not the one on file, theirs is. So I'm assuming they would end up being the ones to pay it.

Dude if the meter maid didn't take down you're drivers license which I'm assuming they wouldn't then just throw away the ticket.

Ignoring a parking ticket that your boss might wind up being asked to pay will make you a shoe-in to get employee of the month...

Why is everyone besides Koods and Pokey telling OP to not pay the ticket or just forget about it/throw it out?

Your proper course of action should be to contact your employer asap to tell them you received a ticket.

I'm just saying...
I would think legally she would not have to pay it,
but once the ticket gets to Crystal's employer obviously they're gonna tell her it's either coming out of her pay or they are taking care of it.

Simple as that.

Edit: Also I was under the impression that it's against the law to drive a rental car unless it's under your name.

Because people don't give a crap about being responsible.

You must have forgotten that doing the proper thing is passe.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

Edit: I phrased this the wrong way originally. It should of said:

So acting déclassé is not passé with kids nowadays.

I'm losing faith in this generation when their actions have to be described using French words lol.
