This agreement constitutes a summary of the main provisions of the General Rental Terms and Conditions which, together with the rental letter signed by the Customer, represent the exclusive source governing the contractual relationship between the rental company CAMBIO AUTOMATICO S.R.L., VIA MATRINO 22, Città Sant’Angelo (PE), and the Customer or its Affiliates.
1. VEHICLE HANDOVER
The driving of the rented vehicle and/or motorcycle is permitted only to individuals holding a valid driving licence of categories A1, A2, A3, or B.
The following minimum age is required:

- Category B – Minimum age 18 years for all types of vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes.
The vehicle and/or motorcycle is entrusted to the Customer on the understanding that it will be used and driven personally by the Customer.
The Customer assumes all risks and liabilities arising from the entrustment of the vehicle and/or motorcycle to third parties, including for the purposes of Article 116, paragraph 12 of the Italian Highway Code (Legislative Decree No. 285/92), concerning the entrustment of a vehicle and/or motorcycle to a person without a valid driving licence or, in any case, not authorised by the rental company.
The Customer may notify the rental company of the names of any additional drivers authorised to operate the vehicle and/or motorcycle. Such drivers will be authorised upon presentation of a valid driving licence. A daily surcharge will apply for each additional authorised driver, amounting to 50% of the rate specified for the rented vehicle and/or motorcycle. For specific vehicle groups and in certain locations, the rental company may, at its discretion, require the possession of two credit cards.
2. RENTAL PAYMENT
Payment may be made by credit or debit card, subject to authorisation by the issuing institution, and/or in cash. In the case of cash payment, a security deposit must be provided by bank draft payable to CAMBIO AUTOMATICO S.R.L. The deposit amount shall be determined according to the type of vehicle and/or motorcycle rented. The Customer holding a financial credit card authorises the rental company to charge the relevant account for all amounts due under the rental agreement, including any charges necessary for the recovery of credits claimed by the rental company in connection with the rental relationship.
Bookings made through the Lessor’s website (www.bnoleggio.it ) under the special ‘Pay Now’ rate require full payment of the rental cost at the time of reservation, charged to the payment card provided by the Customer. The Customer may cancel this type of booking without any penalty up to 48 hours prior to the scheduled vehicle pick-up date. To cancel the reservation and request any applicable refund, the Customer must complete the designated ‘Booking Cancellation’ form available at www.bnoleggio.it/contatti/ . Payments made online are non-refundable in the event of cancellation within 48 hours prior to the scheduled pick-up time, for bookings with pick-up scheduled within 48 hours of the reservation request, in the event of a no-show (failure to collect the vehicle at the agreed date and time), or if the Customer does not meet the eligibility requirements for rental.
3. INSURANCE EXCESS – THIRD-PARTY LIABILITY – COLLISION DAMAGE WAIVER – THEFT – FIRE
The rented vehicle and/or motorcycle is covered by Third-Party Liability Insurance (RCA) and Collision Damage Waiver (Kasko), in accordance with applicable laws.
Should any of the aforementioned events occur, the Customer shall be responsible for the applicable excess as specified in the rental agreement. In the event of theft and/or fire, the excess payable by the Customer shall be that indicated in the rental agreement and determined according to the rented vehicle and/or motorcycle.
(A) In the event of total irreparability of the rented vehicle and/or motorcycle resulting from a serious accident, driving under the influence of alcohol, and/or the use of narcotic substances, the excess payable by the Customer shall be equal to 100% of the current market value of the rented vehicle and/or motorcycle.
For vehicles and/or motorcycles equipped with anti-theft devices, in the event of theft, should the Customer fail to return both the original ignition/opening key and the anti-theft system key, the Customer shall be liable for an amount equal to 100% of the current market value of the vehicle. In all cases of accident, theft, or fire, whether partial or total, the Customer is required to file a formal report with the competent Authorities and to provide a copy to the rental company within 12 hours of the event.
Damage resulting from an accident shall not be charged to the Customer provided that a duly completed C.I.D. (Accident Report Form) is submitted, clearly indicating and signed by the third party acknowledging liability.
The Customer may choose to purchase an Additional Service (Insurance) that reduces or eliminates the penalty for Financial Liability in the event of damage to the rented vehicle and/or motorcycle. The subscription of such Additional Service, which reduces or eliminates liability for damage, entails an additional cost beyond the standard rates set forth in the official price list for the rented vehicle and/or motorcycle (excluding the damages referred to in section (A) above). The purchase of this Additional Service does not relieve the Customer from the obligation to exercise ordinary care and diligence in the use and operation of the vehicle and/or motorcycle.
In the event of vehicle theft occurring in the regions of Calabria, Sicily, Basilicata, Campania, or Puglia, the applicable theft excess shall amount to €5,000.00 (reduced by 40% with the SafeGuard package and by 50% with the FullCover package). Should the vehicle be covered by any insurance package provided by B Noleggio, the relevant insurance coverage shall be deemed invalid (forfeited) for compensation purposes.
Insurance packages (Additional Services) do not cover:
- Any accessories rented in addition to the vehicle (such as satellite navigation devices or other portable navigation units, portable Wi-Fi devices, and child seats). In the event of loss or damage for any reason, the Customer shall be responsible for the replacement costs.

- where the renter and/or the drivers act in breach of the contractual obligations;
- if the loss or damage is intentional;
- if the driver has not been authorized by Cambio Automatico SRL as a primary or additional driver;
