University Vehicles

To operate a university vehicle, faculty, staff, or student drivers must 

• possess a valid driver's license; 

• have two years of driving experience; and

• successfully complete the Rutgers Defensive Driving Course*.

While operating a privately owned vehicle on university business, employees must carry 

• a valid driver's license; 

• a vehicle registration card; and 

• an insurance identification card. 

*The Department of Emergency Services offers the defensive driving course. Course requirement may be waived for occasional drivers who don't transport passengers.

Automobile Insurance Cards 

When vehicles are purchased/leased for the university or donated to it, an Automobile Insurance Card must immediately be obtained from the Department of Risk Management & Insurance. Please also notify us of university vehicles that are sold, transferred, or retired from service, so we can remove them from the insurance schedules.
