Hi Negrilmon, Sorry to hear you lost your $500 deposit. The lady that gave you the licence number just got off work at the Corral Seas Garden. I was the fellow that gave you directions to the police station. One would think when you rent a car, part of the rent is insurance especially in this case when it was cleary not your fault and you have witnesses that saw what went down. We have friends that live in the Negril area for 6 months of the year for the past 25 years and their comment was "even if you have their licence plate number, chances of pinning it on anyone is next to nil". We almost rented a motorcycle for a few days in which I have lots of experience in and I am glad we did not! Its not me I am worried about, its other drivers and the insurance and medical issues in a foreign country which is cloudy at the best of times. It sucks that you lost your deposit instead of the "car rental insurance" covering this incident.
