What is required if I am planning on driving a 15-passenger van?
Due to safety concerns, UT strongly discourages the use of 15-passenger vans. However, drivers who do operate 15-passenger vans must meet the following criteria: • They must be properly authorized in UTDRIVERS (must have an acceptable driver rating and be considered a UT employee). • They must successfully complete the 15-passenger driver training course offered by Fleet Management. The proposed driver must meet these conditions regardless of whether the 15-passenger van is UT-owned or is rented from an outside vendor. Also, the Office of the Controller advises you to notify your departments Dean or Vice President that you will be using a 15-passenger van.
