Document Overview

A Self-Drive Car Hire Agreement is a legally binding contract between a car hire company (the owner/lessor) and a customer (the hirer/lessee) who rents a vehicle to drive themselves, rather than using a chauffeur.

What it is:
1. A formal written agreement that sets out the terms and conditions under which a motor vehicle is hired out for self-drive use.
2. It specifies details such as the hire period, charges, vehicle condition, insurance cover, rights and responsibilities of both parties, and the consequences of breach.
3. It ensures the vehicle is only used lawfully and within the agreed scope.

Purpose:
1. Ensures their vehicle is returned in good condition, clarifies liability for damage, traffic offences, or misuse, and provides legal grounds to recover costs.
2. Gives the customer clarity on what they are paying for, insurance cover, and their rights in case of breakdowns or disputes.
3. Allocates responsibility for accidents, loss, theft, or unlawful use between the parties.
4. Helps both parties comply with Kenyan laws such as the Traffic Act (Cap 403) and the Arbitration Act, 1995.
5. Provides a clear reference document in case of disagreements, reducing the risk of litigation.
