Is one a sub group of the other? Does either term include toddlers?

I'm having this discussion with someone and we both thought the opposite from eachother and we were quite sure our way of thinking was the common understanding.

I want to know if the car I'm renting comes with liability insurance. I just want to be sure that if I am at fault in an accident, that the other car will be covered. Lets try to ignore any personal car insurance policy and let's ignore collision insurance for now.

I am under the impression that in many countries they are required to give you liability insurance when you rent the car, but I don't have a good source. Many articles have mixed information.

For the US, this article says:

For a registered car rental company in the US, they must provide a minimum level of liability protection for cars they rent out.

But this other article says

In the U.S., every state requires a minimum amount of liability insurance on car insurance policies, so you may already have liability coverage through your personal auto insurance.

Which sounds like in the US your personal insurance is all you have.

In the spirit of Lemmy/federation giving more power to the users. I want to let the users of this community vote on our first candidate for a new mod. This is a little risky because there has not been much time for community to form, but I think its a chance to set a good precedence.

Voter information

The candidate for a new mod: lemmy.world/u/forkball

My arguments for adding them as a mod:

• Assuming its the same person, reddit.com/u/forkball was an active reddit user since 2011. And from briefly scanning their history on reddit and Lemmy, they seem like a good level headed person. I think they would be a good mod, but the voice of the community is what matters.
• I have no mod experience and was always a complete reddit lurker, so it would be good to have a very active community member as a mod.

My arguments for not adding them:

• Y'all are chill and not causing a lot of work for me. So at this instant I can handle the work load. Not sure how long that will last though.

How to place a vote

I hope to avoid bots so voting will take some effort.

To place a vote you must comment on this post (I wont count nested comments). Your comment must begin with "YES:" or "NO:" followed by no less than 4 words justifying your vote.

Votes must be submitted before June 29 at 06:00 UTC.

If we have more YES votes than NO votes, u/forkball will become a mod.

Here are examples of valid voting comments: "YES: because forkball both showers and thinks!" "NO: because they didn't give me an up doot"

Fineprint

Lemmy and moderating is still new to me so if this ends up being a really dumb move on my part for some reason I cannot foresee, I reserve the right to bail on this idea and try another method for community input. Things would need to get really nuts for me to bail on this vote.

I don't expect a huge number of votes, but if im wrong, it may take some time to tally the votes.

Edits

• It seems implied, but only one vote per username. Feel free to report duplicates. I will also try to publish the counted votes so people can validate my tally.

I created this community because it was my favorite on Reddit and I couldn't find one on Lemmy.

If the mods from reddit want to to moderate this community, I am happy to welcome them. They do a great job!
