Default airport cars

Just for the fun of it, you fly to an airport, borrow the car,
go to a resteraount, while your having lunch someone backs into
the right rear quarter panel, leaves without notice and you don't see
it. You return the car fly home, the next call you get is someone
holding
you responsible for an accident you don't know about. How does that
work?

Obviously, insurance and liability issues constitute the major problem with
this business model. Perhaps what the world needs is an airport car sharing
service that also offers, and requires, appropriate insurance that protects
users and owners.

I confess to having initially committed the same error as you--failure to
read the rules posted on the "club" website.

Take a look at the FAQ. All of the needed answers are there and the model
does make sense for substantial number; but clearly a minority of pilots.
