Indonesia·WarningThe scooter rental with pre-existing damage
How it works
The renter claims you damaged the scooter and demands a huge sum for repairs. The scratches and dents were already there, but there's no proof if you didn't document anything.
Field advice
Film the scooter from every angle before riding off AND use your own padlock — they have copies of theirs.
