Unless a vehicle is specifically assigned to an individual on an on-going basis the vehicle may not be used for personal activities. All individuals who operate a college vehicle must possess a valid U.S. driver’s license and observe all applicable motor vehicle laws and ordinances.

Failure to report a citation/violation and/or an accident involving a college vehicle will result in a loss of College driving privileges or other disciplinary action.

Operators are required to maintain, clean and provide general maintenance on all vehicles he or she operates. Operators are required to report all mechanical problems to their supervisor.
