If he has his own car insurance policy, most cc's won't cover him, because it's only secondary coverage.
But the Chase SR, BA and United all have primary insurance.

when your driving (meaning whether you own a car or not) chances are that you have your own insurance? 

When does the cc insurance ever work for one who has his own personal insurance?
-1000

To cover deductible if secondary, or everything if primary.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

That the cc covers the damage even if you have your own insurance policy.

Assuming as long as you make the car rental charge on this card you activate the insurance?

Yes, and you have to decline the car rental's CDW.

I was wrong.  As per: http://www.askmrcreditcard.com/chase/british-airways/car-rental-insurance/
Primary in countries where your own car insurance won't cover you.  Otherwise, secondary. ( But not in Ireland, Israel and Jamaica.)
