Re: Use of Private Vehicles on College Business

The following is in response to requests for confirmation of College policy on the above:

1. Those employees who use their private vehicle are reimbursed at the rate of 20¢ per mile.

2. If emplovees are transporting College equipment in their private vehicle and that equipment is damaged while in their possession, the College assumes full responsibility for replacement or repair of the damaged goods.

3. If Colleye equipment is stolen from an employee's private vehicle, the College assumes full responsibility for replacement providing that reasonable security precautions were taken to prevent the theft,

i.e. doors locked etc.

4. If emplovees are transporting students in their private vehicle, it is strongly recommended that they

a. advise their insurance agent that they occasionally transport students and are paid a mileage allowance to do so,

b. insure their vehicle for a minimum of $500,000 to cover Public Liability and Property Damage including passenger hazard.

It is important to note that the College cannot legally insure an employee's private vehicle, since {In the final analysis, the driver and/or the registered owner of the vehicle is responsible.
