Note: Faculty Supervisors are reminded to ensure that personnel from their lab who will be driving Departmental vehicles must have a valid Class 5 driver license recognized for use in British Columbia, and they must also have experience in driving a similar sized vehicle as the one they will be driving.
Please return vehicles to their proper parking stalls; renters are responsible for all towing,
parking and speeding tickets.
Contact vehicle-bookings@eos.ubc.ca to
make a vehicle booking.
It's your responsibility to confirm it has all the seats required.
”Please remember to refuel vehicles and clean them before returning them (inside & outside).
At 6075 Nurseries Rd (South Campus) UBC vehicles are pressure washed for free, Monday to Friday from 7:30am to 3:30pm.
Please only leave the forward bench seat in place before returning the van”.
Familiarize yourself with the vehicle's height, width, length, and turning radius. Be aware of your blind spots
Properly adjust your side mirrors and rear-view mirrors to minimize blind spots. Use them frequently, especially when changing lanes or making turns.
Practice parking in a safe and controlled environment before attempting to park in tight spaces. Use a spotter if necessary.
Practice driving the vehicle around campus, first around quiet traffic areas (e.g. Marine Drive, West Mall), progressing towards areas with more transit.
Signal well in advance of your turns or lane changes. Large vehicles can be hard for other drivers to anticipate, so clear communication is essential
Large vehicles require more braking distance. Apply the brakes gently and early to avoid sudden stops.
Plan your trip to avoid heavy traffic. This is particularly useful if planning to drive in urban environments.
