Who can operate university vehicles? Only UTMB employees and authorized contractors may operate university-owned vehicles, vehicles leased from Fleet Services, or vehicles rented from private rental agencies for university use. What does “UTMB employees” include? For purposes of vehicle assignment, a UTMB employee is defined as “any individual working for the state for wages or salary.” This can include part-time employees, visiting faculty paid by stipend, or students if they are on our payroll. May I lease a UTMB vehicle while my car is in the shop? No. University vehicles may only be operated for university business. My department just bought a new university vehicle. How do I go about getting insurance on it? Newly acquired university-owned vehicles are automatically insured with comprehensive and liability insurance when they are titled to the university. If I rent a vehicle for university business, should I purchase the Collision Damage Waiver or liability coverage they always try to sell you? No. State policy does not allow reimbursement for this type of expense (except for certain rental situations in foreign countries). The state's own automobile insurance provides liability, comprehensive, and collision coverage for commercial vehicles rented by employees for less than 30 days for official university business. I had an automobile accident while conducting university business. What should I do? You should do two things right away. First, notify campus police or the appropriate law enforcement agency and get a police report. Second, notify Fleet Services, at (409) 747-2959 within 24 hours of the accident and complete the UTMB Accident Report as soon as possible.
