The at-fault party's insurance carrier should be paying for your rental car. The at-fault party's insurance carrier probably has a daily maximum rate of what it will pay for a rental car. Also, it won't cover the collision damage waiver, but if you have adequate insurance you won't need the collision damage waiver.
