Rental agencies are self insured and their bond doesn't apply to renters. The renter is responsible for either having auto insurance that transfers to a rental OR purchasing insurance at the counter in order to be properly covered in their vehicle.

Yes, because they have to cover themselves in case you don't pay up. It's NOT there to cover you, it's there to cover them. If you damaged/destroyed one of their vehicles, you will pay nonetheless.

Regardless of what they have, the customer is still 100% responsible for any damage. Your insurance - if you have any - will cover it minus deductible but rental companies usually find a way to take advantage of their customers, and this is the reason I buy additional coverage from them - yes they are crooks, but it definitely is cheaper than to deal with them in case of an accident.

The larger companies self-insure their rental auto fleets.

Insurance goes with vehicles, not with people. They will also typically offer you collision coverage for an additional charge that will cover you if you damage the vehicle through your fault.
