Keep the essential details offline

Have the agreement reference, vehicle identification and assistance contact available to the driver. In a problem, first reach a safe situation and explain your location clearly. Ask the provider for instructions before arranging outside repairs or assistance that may affect the agreement.

PLANNING EXAMPLE

A situation worth thinking through

A driver with no mobile data can still find a saved phone number and booking reference if they were prepared before travelling.

Driving and parking: the wider picture

Prepare for the actual vehicle and journey before leaving the handover point. Transport Malta’s current road guidance is the authoritative starting point for local driving information.

Set up navigation while safely parked and follow the road signs and conditions you encounter. A navigation suggestion is not permission to enter a restricted street or park somewhere prohibited. Rental vehicle use, authorised drivers and incident reporting remain governed by your agreement. For unfamiliar controls, ask the handover representative or consult the actual vehicle instructions; do not experiment while driving.
