Compensation in case of injury to themselves while engaged in carrying

out the authorized business.

E. Employees, such as Pupil Services and Attendance Counselors (PSA),

authorized to drive private vehicles to transport student(s) in an

emergency or non-routine situation must complete the Authorization for

Emergency/Non-Routine Transportation form (LS1, Attachment A). A

copy of each emergency/non-routine transport should be kept on file with

the school site administrator.

IV. TRANSPORTATION BY PARENTS AND/OR STUDENTS

The preferred manner to transport students is through the use of school buses

arranged through the Transportation Branch. However, where private vehicles are

used to transport students, the following guidelines should be adhered to by

District employees when using a private vehicle for the approved transport of

students.

LAUSD does not authorize the use of student drivers to transport another student.

In addition, the use of private automobiles driven by parents is prohibited for

district activities or events unless specifically authorized by the site administrator.

In some instances, the site administrator may determine there are an insufficient

number of students to justify the use of a school bus and may authorize parent

drivers as a practical means of providing transportation. Once a parent driver has

been authorized to transport students, in addition to the general safety precautions

listed under Section II above, the following guidelines will apply:

A. The District does not assume any liability for the

operation of vehicles driven by parents or students.

The Transportation Waiver form (LS2, Attachment B) must be completed by a

parent or guardian for each student riding in a private vehicle driven by any parent

authorized to drive by the site administrator.

B. All parent drivers must complete the Private Automobile

Driver’s Liability Insurance Certification form, (LS3, Attachment C).

C. No insurance coverage is provided by the District’s liability insurance

program for parent and/or student drivers.

V. SPECIAL PROVISION REGARDING FIELD TRIPS

If a school has a field trip where parents or other non-District employees drive students in

private vehicles, the school must obtain the following:
