Section 5:01:02:01.01 - Allowance for use of privately owned motor vehicle by individual with special needs

If no state-owned motor vehicles are equipped or modified for the transportation of an individual with special needs and the individual desires to drive a personal motor vehicle on state business, the individual shall be paid 68 cents a mile for a passenger or cargo van, pick up, or sports utility vehicle and 51 cents a mile for any other motor vehicle. An individual with special needs is a person with a disability that makes the person unable temporarily or permanently to operate an unmodified state-owned motor vehicle but allows the person to operate a personal motor vehicle that is equipped or modified to be operated in spite of the disability.

To receive reimbursement under this section, the individual shall complete the form provided by the State Board of Finance and attach the form to the travel voucher. The form shall contain the name of the individual requesting the reimbursement, the individual's driver license number, the individual's agency and the agency address and phone number, the make and model of the motor vehicle, the vehicle license plate number, the individual's signature, the signature of the supervisor approving the request, and the date of travel.
