For LDW/CDW use one of the credit cards which provide coverage. For liability, I think hertz covers you if you are on international license (renting in California). Please do call and confirm with Hertz.

For starters, don’t let them drive here!

Are you sure they can legally drive here?

Alternately you can opt for the liability insurance provided by the car rental agency as well.

Add them to your insurance. I added a family member on international license. Had to pay about $20 more each month

I added my FIL onto our insurance with geico. He is 60 and I have a reasonably old car 11 years and the extra bump was basically 10
Bucks a month.

Found a most enlightening work on decolonial history with tons of TIL moments especially about Anti Colonial movements in Egypt, China, Japan and course India in the 19th and 20th centuries. Most histories this period often adopt a Euro-centric lens but this book flips it and tells the stories of these turbulent times from the vantage point of the pioneering Asian leaders like Tagore, Al Afghani, Kang Youwei etc. Lovers of Asian history would surely appreciate this book
