Collision damage liability coverage is automatically provided by the University for all vehicles rented or leased by and for the University for official business. University policy requires that this coverage not be purchased from the rental companies for rentals made in the United States and Canada.

Collision Damage Waiver

The University will not reimburse a faculty or staff member for the purchase of a collision damage waiver for a vehicle rented for use while on University business in the United States or Canada. A faculty or staff member renting a vehicle outside the United States or Canada for use on University official business will be reimbursed for the purchase of a collision damage waiver.

Accidents Involving Rented Vehicles

All accidents involving a rental vehicle, regardless of the amount of damage, must be reported in accordance with the procedures in 8:040 Vehicle Accidents.
