Car Rental Agreement Form Pdf: Fill & Download for Free

Much Simpler & Faster Online Process (Updated February 2017)My experience was with KR puram RTO without using any broker or agent. Now that the process is centralized, I believe this procedure can be applied across all RTOs.Step I: Online Application (20 mins)The home page for license application is https://parivahan.gov.in/sarathiservice/sarathiHomePublic.do. This is a user friendly website and has all necessary links for the required steps as given below.1.LL Application:Clicking on “Apply online – New Learner’s license” should take you to New LL Stage Details. Select new driving learning license and fill the form in the next page. (If you need license for car & 2 wheeler, you need to select both LMV and MCWG in the “Class of vehicles”) Make sure all personal details match with the document proofs.Once the form is submitted, you will get an acknowledgement and receive a sms on your mobile with the application number. You can take a print out of the completed form (Captioned as Form 2).Paste your photograph and fill in any missing details including CMV Form 1 and sign where required. You need to scan or take a picture of filled-in CMV Form 1 (along with annexures, if applicable) for uploading later.Tip : If you are 40 years or older (and / or) require a commercial yellow board license, then you may need to undergo a medical test and submit a fitness certificate as a part of Form 1 above. (Depending upon your RTO, you can also get a medical certificate near RTO office for about Rs 50 to 100)2. Uploading documents:The next page will have options to upload the required documents. Online form dropdown menu in that page shall give you the list of eligible documents. You basically need to upload scanned copies of three types documents (in pdf or jpeg format and size less than 1 MB).(i) Age Proof – Common documents include any one of PAN Card, Passport, School Certificate or Birth Certificate(ii) Address Proof – Common documents include any one of Passport, Voter id card, Electricity Bill, BSNL/MTNL Bill, Rental agreement. If you are staying at a temporary address, please upload the rental agreement with your name on it and the latest electricity bill with the name of the owner (merged into a single pdf document). You won’t get an option to upload your permanent address proof and it is recommended that you carry it while you visit the RTO.(iii) Form 1 (self-declaration) – This is the scanned copy of the CMV Form 1 as mentioned above.Tip : You can get the entire list of documents or procedure by visiting the official link https://sarathi.nic.in:8443/nrportal/sarathi/HowTo/howtoLL.pdf.3.Uploading photo & signatureYou need to upload your latest passport size photo and signature. The tricky thing is both of these should be less than 20 kb each. Use websites like Resize Images online or Smallpdf.com - A Free Solution to all your PDF Problems to reduce the size and they should be good to go.4. Booking LL Slot:The next step is to book a slot to visit your chosen RO. As many mentioned here, chose weekdays if possible and preferably the earliest slot in the morning.5. Fee paymentThis is an option for online payment but this may not work depending upon the RTO chosen. If your RTO does not have this option, the website shall give you a message to visit the RTO to make the payment.This marks the end of your online application process. If you wish to view or modify the details of application or appointment time later, you can do so by selecting the required option in the home page https://parivahan.gov.in/sarathiservice/sarathiHomePublic.do and entering your application number and date of birthOnce you are satisfied with the application, you should take printouts of the acknowledgement form, appointment receipt and application form (as already done in Step 1)Step II: Preparation for the LL Test (20 mins)You have to prepare for an online test (at RTO) to test your knowledge on signs and driving rules. Preparation is a short but very important process and if not done properly, you may have to visit the RTO one or more time again. You can refer the following sectionsTypes of traffic signshttp://transport.karnataka.gov.in/index.php/information/details/mandatory_signshttp://transport.karnataka.gov.in/index.php/information/details/coutionary_signshttp://transport.karnataka.gov.in/index.php/information/details/informatory_signTraffic questions Q&A bank is available here http://licencetest.in/question-bank/category/en/Step III: Visit the RTO (20-30 mins)It is preferred that you visit the RTO on the allotted date and time, but generally you can visit any time after you complete your application process in Step 1 (RTO systems have improved so you need not wait for 4 hours as many have mentioned)Things to carry(i) Original Age Proof(ii) Original Address Proof(iii) Printout of Application form (Photo pasted and signed)(iv) Printouts of acknowledgement form and appointment receiptIn most cases documents (i) and (ii) are enough and is only to be shown. Since they have all the details online, your application number is enough to fetch them the details of your application. RTO officials won’t ask you for (iii) and (iv) above, but it is good to carry them just in case.At this stage, your photograph or copies of documents are not required to be taken either (no need for a brown paper folder). You can carry them if you want to be super prepared (But nobody would ask you)Fee PaymentYou need to visit the cash counter to pay the fee for your application first. (In case of KR Puram RTO, this is Counter 3 located on the left corner as soon you enter the ground floor).There should be a separate counter for LL fees payment. Mention your application number (from the sms message) or show the application form if you have taken the printout.Fee may vary depending upon the vehicle you have chosen. For ex. If you need both LMV and MCWG, then you may be asked to pay Rs 350 and they will give you a system generated receipt for this amount (Keep this safe)Document Scrutiny & LL TestTip: The RTO office is typically filled with many people applying through driving schools and also those who require commercial license (yellow board). Please don’t get baffled by seeing long queues or seek advice from them. If you are unsure, better to ask the RTO staff by mentioning you applied online. They will guide you.The next step is to visit the room for verifying your documents and the online test. (In KR puram RTO, this is counter 4). Normally the queues for online applications are shorter so you can directly ask the RTO staff regarding whom to approach.The verifying officer will check your online details and online uploaded documents along with your originals. (In very rare cases if he finds any discrepancy, he may ask you to edit information or upload documents. It would be good to carry a mobile phone with good internet connection and camera).Once documents are verified, the assessing officer will ask you to note down a pin number for your test and will allot you a computer to take the test. You can login to the test using the application number, DoB, password (you will receive this as a message on your mobile before the test) and pin number (as given above).The test will consist of 15 questions related to signs and road rules. Test duration is 15 mins (Each question will have one minute to answer with timer running). You have to score 10 marks to pass (Should be a cake walk if you have prepared from the links above).If you have failed, you may have to come back the next working day to repeat the test.If you have passed, then inform the officer and he will collect your receipt and confirm that your process is complete.After 2 days, you will receive a message that your learning license is approved. You can collect your learning license by either (i) Visiting the RTO in the evening time or (ii) Downloading it from the home page by logging in to your application page.Hope this helps. I will update the details of obtaining the driving license after one month.

If you are doing a “one” off occasionally rental, there is documentation, and a dozen or so option to “chose” , (and for the staff to try to upgrade you).Most of the “Big” rental Car companies have “frequent” renter databases/App. That have all that information pre-loaded in.When I rent a car, I get a Text message before I land, that tell me my car is in Space X, I go to the car, get in and drive do the Exit, They do a quick check/scan of my drivers licence, Print out the rental agreement, (also send me a PDF of it ). Hand me bottle of Ice Cold Water, and I’m gone. Total time from getting to car to out on the road less then 5 minues.

ATTACKING GREENHOUSE GASES IS TILTING AT WINDMILLS.“Most climate alarmists don't realize that the "solutions" they are proposing would cause great human suffering.” AramburuThe alarmists claiming greenhouse gases are making the climate too hot is far from settled science and there is a high probability the theory is wrong. This means the economic sacrifices needed to reduce CO2 is a tragic self inflicted harm mostly on the poor and developing nations without any positive effect on the climate.The goal of making the climate colder by governments undertaking to reduce carbon dioxide with taxes etc is especially hard to fathom when you consider that the Earth is in the middle of an ice age that surely makes runaway warming impossible. In an ice age there are only cycles of glaciation and deglaciation caused by the variable relationship of the Earth to the Sun. The earth is cooling and the fear is deglaciation is waning and that is truly a climate crisis.Further all the efforts so far by governments such as the Paris Agreement to reduce CO2 have been in vain just hot air signifying nothing.The public campaign against so called CO2 as a greenhouse gas is a farce just like Don Quijote of Las Mancha tilting at imaginary windmills.The subsidies for wind and solar renewables are harmful tilting at windmills. Due to intermittency these renewables in increase the cost of electricity and cause heat poverty.Denmark and Germany have the highest installed renewables and the highest cost of electricity.German Institute Delivers Bad News On CO2, E-Cars: “Electric Vehicles Not A Panacea For Climate Change”By P Gosselin on23. April 2019A few days ago here we wrote about how a team of German scientists at the Munich-based ifo Institute released the results of a study that showed that Electric cars end up producing more CO2 than comparable diesel cars. What follows is the press release in English issued by the ifo Institute: ========================================================= ifo: Electric […]ifo: Electric Vehicles not a Panacea for Climate ChangeApr 17, 2019Electric vehicles will barely help cut CO2 emissions in Germany over the coming years, as the introduction of electric vehicles does not necessarily lead to a reduction in CO2 emissions from road traffic. Natural gas combustion engines are the ideal technology for transitioning to vehicles powered by hydrogen or “green” methane in the long term.Considering Germany’s current energy mix and the amount of energy used in battery production, the CO2 emissions of battery-electric vehicles are, in the best case, slightly higher than those of a diesel engine, and are otherwise much higher. This has been confirmed by a new study by Christoph Buchal, professor of physics at the University of Cologne; Hans-Dieter Karl, long-standing ifo energy expert; and Hans-Werner Sinn, former ifo president and professor emeritus at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München. The researchers carried out their detailed calculations using the concrete examples of a modern electric car and a modern diesel vehicle. In addition to CO2 emissions from battery production, they looked at alternative energy sources for electricity in order to calculate the impact electric vehicles have on CO2 emissions. They show that even with today’s technology, total emissions from a combustion engine powered by natural gas are already almost one-third lower than those of a diesel engine. “Over the long term, hydrogen-methane technology offers a further advantage: it allows surplus wind and solar power generated during peaks to be stored, and these surpluses will see a sharp increase as the share of this renewable energy grows,” Professor Buchal explains.In their study, the authors criticize the fact that EU legislation allows electric vehicles to be included in calculations for fleet emissions with a value of “zero” CO2 emissions, as this suggests that electric vehicles do not generate any such emissions. The reality is that, in addition to the CO2 emissions generated in the production of electric vehicles, almost all EU countries generate significant CO2 emissions from charging the vehicles’ batteries using their national energy production mixes. The authors also take a critical view of the discussion about electric cars in Germany, which centers around battery-operated vehicles when other technologies also offer great potential: hydrogen-powered electric vehicles or vehicles with combustion engines powered by green methane, for instance. “Methane technology is ideal for the transition from natural gas vehicles with conventional engines to engines that will one day run on methane from CO2-free energy sources. This being the case, the German federal government should treat all technologies equally and promote hydrogen and methane solutions as well,” emphasizes Professor Sinn.Publication (in German)Buchal, Christoph, Hans-Dieter Karl and Hans-Werner Sinn, “Kohlemotoren, Windmotoren und Dieselmotoren: Was zeigt die CO2-Bilanz?”, ifo Schnelldienst 72 (08), 2019 | Details | PDF DownloadPosted in Alternative Energy | 4 ResponsesDriving Electric Vehicles In China Increases CO2 Emissions…Driving Gasoline Vehicles In China Reduces CO2 EmissionsBy Kenneth Richard on11. December 2017Electric Vehicle Emissions 27-50% GreaterThan Internal Combustion Engine VehiclesImage: Qiao et al., 2017Sales of electric vehicles (EV) in China have exploded in recent years.According to the New York Times (October, 2017), between 2014 and 2017, annual EV purchases by China’s citizens more than doubled, from 145,000 in 2014 to 295,000 (projected) for 2017. By 2019, the annual sales of EVs are expected to swell to 814,000 for China alone, which will eclipse the expected EV sales for the rest of the world combined (602,000).Good news for the climate, right? After all, driving an EV is green. Driving an EV reduces CO2 emissions. Driving an EV is sustainable. Right?Well, no. According to recently published scientific papers, driving an EV in China dramatically increases CO2 emissions relative to driving an internal combustion engine vehicle (ICEV).Why? Because China’s electricity grid is overwhelmingly powered by fossil-fuels (i.e., 88% of China’s energy consumption (2015) is derived from coal, oil and gas). Therefore, the energy used to charge up an electric vehicle in China is derived from a rapidly growing fossil fuel-based electrical grid.Fossil fuel-powered electricity grids are growing in prevalence across the world. And this will continue to be the case as “1,600 coal plants are planned or under construction in 62 countries” which will “expand the world’s coal-fired power capacity by 43 percent” (New York Times, July, 2017).As long as EVs continue to be predominantly powered by the growing fossil fuel infrastructure in China (“Chinese corporations are building or planning to build more than 700 new coal plants at home and around the world”), driving EVs will not reduce CO2 emissions relative to driving ICEVs.Put another way, purchasing and driving a conventional internal combustion engine vehicle will actually reduce China’s CO2 emissions.According to Barkenbus (2017), “when EVs receive electricity with emission levels exceeding 559 gCO2/kWh, they, unfortunately, are net contributors to climate change when compared with conventional vehicles.”China’s EVs receive electricity with emissions levels of 712 gCO2/kWh, which is 27% greater than the emissions associated with driving the average ICEV.Image: Barkenbus, 2017Not only that, but as the introductory image above indicates, the manufacture of battery-powered EVs emit 50% more greenhouse gas emissions (CO2) than ICEVs do.Qiao et al., 2017“In this study, the life cycle energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions of vehicle production are compared between battery electric and internal combustion engine vehicles in China’s context. … Greenhouse gas emissions of battery electric vehicles are 50% higher than internal combustion engine vehicles.”“Electric Drive Vehicles (EDVs) are considered to be environmentally-friendly and have attracted much attention worldwide, and Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) are the most popular vehicles among all kinds of EDVs. In China, the country with the world’s largest automotive market, the government is determined to develop BEV industry and produced over 250 thousand BEVs in 2015, and the annual growth rate was 420%. In addition, according to the production plan, the cumulative output of BEVs in China will reach 5 million in 2020, meaning that BEVs will gradually replace Internal Combustion Engine Vehicles (ICEVs). BEVs [Battery Electric Vehicles] are designed to obtain more environmental benefits, but the energy consumption and GHG emissions of BEV production are much larger than those of ICEV [Internal Combustion Engine Vehicles] production in China.”So why is it that advocates of CO2 emissions reductions so readily extol the explosion of EV purchases and use worldwide?German Post Electric Delivery Vehicles Falter, “Lose Power Mid Delivery Route”By P Gosselin on7.

It appears autumn has been entirely skipped this year, with Sept. 22, 2020 bringing about an almost instantaneously flip to winter-like weather.On Monday, Nov. 29, Delhi recorded a record-breaking low of 6.9C (44.4F), and on Tuesday, Nov. 30, the mercury fell to 10C (50F)–two readings that capped the month off as the capital’s coldest November in 71 years with a mean minimum temperature of just 10.2C (50.4F).According to data provided by India’s Meteorological Department (IMD), the last time Delhi reported a November with a mean minimum temperature equal-to or below 10.2C was way back in 1949, before India was even a Republic.Moreover, November 2020 finished-up joint fourth on the list of Delhi’s all-time coldest Novembers, tying with 1949’s (10.2C) and only eclipsed by those in 1938 (9.6C), 1931 (9C), 1930 (8.9C), and tied with 1949.The average mean November low is 12.9C (55.2F).In addition, the IMD has confirmed that the national capital also braved four severe cold waves during November: on the 3rd, 20th, 23rd and 24th of the month.“The minimum temperature this month has remained 2-3 degrees Celsius below normal”, the IMD said, whose data also reveals that the historically chilly November just suffered comes hot-on-the-heels of an exceptionally cold October–Delhi’s coldest since 1962.Delhi suffers Coldest month of November in 71 years, since before the birth of the Indian Republic - Electroverse
