Each agency/institution is responsible for the actions of its authorized drivers and must institute proper disciplinary actions for violating the regulations. Additionally, each agency/institution must reimburse State  Fleet Services for:

1. The cost of repairs for damages resulting from an employee's gross negligent driving or misuse.

2. The cost of repairs for damages resulting from other than normal over-the-road operations.

3. The towing costs resulting from vehicles being driven into swampy or rugged terrain, unless driving there is necessary to carry out the agency's/institution's duties and responsibilities.

State Fleet Services will notify department heads of all operator violations.
