If you rent from Enterprise at the Avignon TGV station, they will try to pressure you into buying insurance that you may not need. Insist that they give you time to review contracts from any other insurance that you think might be cover your rental. Contact the other insurance if you are not sure.
Here is our experience. On Aug 30, 2025 Renault Eurodrive rented a car for our use from Enterprise Rent-A-Car because of vandalism to a car that we leased from Eurodrive. The Enterprise agent pressured us into buying complete insurance coverage by saying that we would be responsible for any damages incurred during our rental. This was completely false because Eurodrive provided collision insurance for the replacement car. The Enterprise agent insisted that we sign everything immediately and did not give us the opportunity to contact Eurodrive for more accurate information. We ending up paying about $700 for insurance that was not necessary.
