Motorist Assistance

 

Establishes procedures for obtaining a motorist waiver of liability prior to rendering services to motorists who require assistance.

 

FORMS USED

Motorist Assistance/Waiver of Liability form PS1-F1

 

CODES, REGULATIONS, AND DISTRICT POLICIES RELATED TO THIS PROCEDURE

None

 

PRIMARY STAKEHOLDER:

District Police Chief

 

COMMENTS

Every reasonable effort is made to assist motorists who require assistance for lock-outs, battery jump starts, or other minor emergencies. However, because Public Safety personnel are not professional automotive technicians, bodily injury to the employee or damage to the vehicle may occur while service is being rendered. This procedure is intended to (1) document the amount and type of motorist services that are provided by Public Safety and (2) to obtain a liability waiver from the motorist in order to protect the District's interests.

 

In no situation shall a District employee perform a service that he or she does not feel he or she can safely handle.
