Hi de Hi Campers will be responsible should damage to personal possessions or bodily injury occur (including death) as a result of proven gross negligence on Hi de Hi Campers part i.e., our actions or failure to act. Hi de Hi Campers will not be responsible for any loss which is a side effect of the main loss e.g., loss of profits or opportunity. This is separate from the Vehicle insurance provided. Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) Collision Damage Waiver will reduce the GB£750.00 excess for damage caused due to a Road Traffic Accident (RTA) or collision (i.e., reported accident) to either the Vehicle or third-party property to £0. This also protects the excess should a third party damage the vehicle (as ‘[none-fault claims on a hire vehicle still lose of the excess). It will also cover the cost of replacement tyres or windscreen. However, it will not cover any damage to the Vehicle or third-party property caused through a reversing manoeuvre, any damage deemed as malicious i.e., Vehicle break in or vandalism, cover the replacement or repair of windows or cover the theft of the Vehicle. No insurance cover is offered for Overhead Damage, any damaged deemed as gross negligence or any internal damages therefore full liability will apply. This applies in respect of the first incident and / or claim, not the entire duration of the rental. Once an accident has occurred CDW cannot be restarted and standard insurance terms will apply. The incident must be reported to Hi de Hi Campers within 24 hours otherwise the CDW cover will not be applicable. Maximum charge term for CDW is 21 nights. Should the Terms and Conditions not be adhered to, the CDW will be void and the Customer will be liable in full for all costs and damages.
