*The Tailgating, or Gate-Running, Policy is to deter vehicles from entering or exiting a parking structure by driving directly behind a valid vehicle entering or exiting the structure on the same gate cycle. For a new gate cycle to commence, the arm of the gate must lower ultimately before initiating it to rise again either with one’s permit or by pulling a ticket (to enter) or with one’s permit, inserting the paid-for hourly ticket or rendering payment (upon exiting). Tailgating is usually done by persons without a valid permit or gate card or permit holders who have lost their access card and are attempting to enter or exit the parking structure without authorization or payment. This is a safety hazard and is also considered a theft of services. Violators endanger themselves and the vehicle they are tailgating behind and risk possible damage to the parking equipment. A dean’s referral may be issued for students who commit this violation. University employees may be reported to their supervisors, college dean or vice president for violation of Employee Conduct and Work Rules, SPP 801. Please report abuse to 480-965-0641.
+ Additional administrative sanctions may be assessed including but not limited to referral to the dean of students, referral to Office of Human Resources, full permit value, or costs for replacement or repair of parking equipment.
1 The vehicle may be immediately impounded per the Parking and Transit Boot and Tow Policy.
