HSU Transportation

The Plant Operations department is responsible for maintaining the safe operation and maintenance records of each HSU fleet vehicle, as well as reporting the costs for each trip to accounting for billing to appropriate University Department Accounts. We also maintain records on current eligible drivers through a database, based on attendance at Defensive Driving Classes or through issuance of a temporary Defensive Driving Card in our office.

We take pride in the pool of vehicles that are available for University use and spend time and effort to keep these vehicles in safe running order and looking their best. It is also our task to enforce University policy which states that these vehicles are:

to be used on maintained roads only
no animals are to be transported (except animals trained to aid the handicapped)
no hitchhikers may be transported
no passengers other than persons directly involved with official university or state business.
drivers and passengers must use all safety devices and obey other regulations pertaining to the use of a state vehicle.
