If I hire a car with say Avis and I ding another car, can I use my AA insurance instead of purchasing the excess reduction with Avis?

Hi there,
You will need to call your insurance company for this detail.
However, your personal vehicle insurance would not usually cover a vehicle you have hired, or another vehicle other than those you have a policy for. 3rd party is liability for the vehicle mentioned in your policy and if that vehicle damages another.
