A student may not register a vehicle owned by another student or for the use of another student. Adjudication of violations of this regulation or any other shall be left to the discretion of the appropriate judicial body.
By completing vehicle registration, the vehicle owner indicates that he/she has read and understood the University of Lynchburg Traffic and Parking Regulations. Failure to comply with the Traffic and Parking Regulations and any posted vehicle regulations will result in issuance of a citation.
Parking decals are to be placed on the left bottom exterior corner of the vehicle’s rear glass. For vehicles such as pick-up trucks, jeeps (soft top), convertibles, and vehicles with dark-tinted windows, decals should be placed in a location visible to Campus Safety and Security officers. Most state codes prohibit application of decals to the front windshield other than state inspection or city/county decals. Individuals concerned about proper placement of a University of Lynchburg decal should contact Campus Safety and Security for advice.
If a registered vehicle is sold or traded for another vehicle, the original University of Lynchburg decal needs to be removed and presented at the Information Desk. The replacement vehicle will be registered and a new decal issued for a $5 fee.
Each registered vehicle owner/operator is responsible for maintaining proper insurance coverage to protect his/her vehicle from such damage as vandalism, theft, and acts of nature. University of Lynchburg is not responsible for such acts that may occur while a vehicle is driven or parked on University of Lynchburg property.
