Answer 1

To paraphrase Jeremy Clarkson’s brilliant take on rental cars on Top Gear “The fastest car in the world is a rental”.

​

The joke being that people don’t own rentals, and thus don’t feel responsible towards it, and thus drive it like they stole it. The insurance will take care of any damage, right?
