SECTION 6: INSURANCE AND ACCIDENT REPORTING
An accident is defined as any incident that causes damage to persons or property. An accident report must be filed with local authorities for any accident involving a vehicle that is owned, leased, donated or otherwise managed by the University if the accident results in personal injury to either party or results in property damage that equals or exceeds $400. Departments are required to report all accidents (even those not reported to local authorities) to Transportation & Parking Services within 48 hours after the occurrence. Departments may not authorize repairs (other than emergency repairs to safely return to their lodging/destination) until authorization is received from Transportation & Parking Services. Transportation & Parking Services processes all claims for University vehicles. Departments are liable for the deductible for each incident as established by the University Treasurer.
