- The FHSU employee must be at least 18 years of age to drive a Motor Pool vehicle.
- State employees are covered by insurance purchased by the state only when they are acting within the scope of their authority or within the course of their employment. Insurance purchased by the State does not necessarily eliminate the desirability of the individual to whom the vehicle is assigned having additional protection by a "drive other vehicle" endorsement on his own insurance.
