back to topHow do I get the keys?
You don't have to go anywhere to get them. They'll be waiting for you inside the vehicle on a retractable cord attached to the dashboard. Remember, your vehicle access card gives you and ONLY you access to the vehicle when it's your turn to drive. It unlocks and locks the doors and ignition, which allows us to leave the keys right inside the vehicle.
back to topHow do I get into a vehicle?
When you join, you are issued a vehicle access card. (It's about the shape and size of a credit card.) This card has a unique number, assigned to you. When you reserve a vehicle, that vehicle is expecting you and ONLY you (and your vehicle access card) at the time of your reservation. When you get to the vehicle, just hold your vehicle access card above the card reader. The locks pop open, and you're in.
back to topWhat happens if I get a parking ticket or other violation?
You, the driver, are responsible for all tickets and citations that are issued to a vehicle while you are operating it.
back to topCan I smoke in the vehicle?
Smoking is not allowed in the ZEV•NET vehicles.
back to topCan multiple authorized drivers drive during the same reservation?
Yes. If there are multiple ZEV•NET approved employees going on a trip together, any of them may drive the vehicle regardless of who has it reserved. However, keep in mind, only the reserving employee's card will work to open and close the vehicle during the reservation and the reservation will be attributed to that employee's department.
back to topCan someone who is not an authorized driver drive a vehicle?
No. Anyone behind the wheel must be an approved member of the ZEV•NET program for obvious liability reasons. You can go through your department fleet coordinator to gain approval for the ZEV•NET program. If you let someone drive who is not an approved member, your participation in the program could be terminated.
