Available and Fully Supported
Any accident involving University owned, leased, or rented vehicles, or personally owned vehicles being used for University business, must be reported to the campus Vehicle Administrator within 24 hours of time of the accident.
The university approved driver of the vehicle is responsible for reporting the accident. The accident should also be reported to the driver's supervisor and to any other person or department, such as Public Safety, if so directed by the Campus Motor Vehicle Administrator.
In the event of serious injury to a driver or third-party, incidents must be reported immediately so the appropriate officiating agencies, such as OSHA can be contacted.
Failure to adhere to this rule and/or APL may result in the suspension or termination of driving privileges for the offending party and/or additional performance management.
The University System Risk Manager reserves the right to allocate the settlement to the department due to late reporting when the late report caused additional defense and liability costs and/or department's failure to follow this APL.
