At the employee's destination, state cars may be used prudently for travel to obtain meals, but not for private purposes or for entertainment while off duty. No common carrier or public transportation fares are reimbursable for a trip on which an employee uses a state car, unless it is shown that such transportation was more economical in a particular situation. Hitchhikers are not permitted to ride in state-owned vehicles. State vehicles shall not be used by employees who are on vacation status. When travel by car is determined to be feasible, a state-owned vehicle, when available, should be used instead of a private vehicle.
Actual mileage is reimbursable.
Parking fees, tolls, and storage fees are reimbursable. Receipts are required. A receipt copy of the ticket must be attached, the credit card charge form will not suffice. Travel by air coach must be used. If the cancellation or change is made for the personal benefit of the employee, it shall be the employee's obligation to pay the penalties and charges.
