Let's say that I put up a notice in the office with an offer to let colleagues and their trusted friends borrow my car in return for a little bit of money. How would my insurance company react to this if there is an accident, and it came out that I had charged money for lending out the car? Would the driver still be insured? Would I lose my insurance for the future? Could I be prosecuted and thrown out of the country? I hate to have a car standing around that I hardly use, and I know people would be happy to be able to use if for a fraction of the price of a rental, but I'd like to know what the worst case scenario may look like first.
Thankful for any help!
