Summary

Rental Fairness Act of 1999 - Title I: Regulation of Motor Vehicle Rental Insurance Agency Activities - Makes the presumption that no State law or regulation imposes any licensing, appointment, or education requirements on any person who solicits the purchase of or sells insurance connected with and incidental to a rental transaction of a motor vehicle, unless such law or regulation expressly regulates or exempts from regulation any such person or entity with respect to a short term motor vehicle lease or rental transaction. Title II: Ultimate Insurer and Vicarious Liability Fairness - Declares that no person engaged in the business of renting or leasing a motor vehicle shall be placed in the position of an ultimate insurer of its rental customers, or the occupants of its rental vehicles, or be liable to a claimant for the tortious act of another solely by reason of being an owner of such motor vehicle. Declares that nothing in this title shall relieve a person engaged in such business from complying with a State's minimum financial responsibility or insurance statute or regulations imposed by it for the privilege of registering and operating a motor vehicle.
