				General. This rule is applicable to all persons who operate or park a motor
				vehicle on the campuses of Florida International University. All Miami-Dade
				County traffic and parking ordinances which are not in conflict or inconsistent
				with University regulations and all provisions of Chapter 316, F.S., shall
				extend and be applicable to the University's campuses. The Department of
				Parking and Traffic is authorized and empowered to enforce all University
				parking and traffic regulations. The University Public Safety Department is
				authorized and empowered to enforce University regulations, all county
				ordinances and state laws. Copies of the University parking and traffic
				regulations are available from the Department of Parking and Traffic, the

. The
				University assumes no liability for vehicles parked or operated on University
				property. The issuance of a decal or permit does not guarantee a place to
				park.
(2) Registration of Motor
				Vehicles. Vehicles used by members of the faculty, staff, students, (full or
				part-time), concessionaire employees and others who regularly operate a vehicle
				on campus must be registered with the Department of Parking and Traffic during
				the first day the vehicle is on campus. Vehicle registrations expire on the
				expiration date indicated on decal or permit. All visitors must use parking
				meters unless a parking permit has been provided by a University
				representative. Any motor vehicle parked on University property must display a
				valid University parking decal or parking permit. Use of a motor vehicle on
				University property is a privilege, not a right and is made available only
				under this rule.
(a) Decals.
1. Faculty/Staff. A Faculty/Staff parking
				decal must be obtained for each vehicle which is, or may be, parked on the
				University's campuses. Decals are issued according to the classifications
				contained in these regulations. A decal will be issued by the Department of
				Parking and Traffic, upon the following conditions:
a. The owner or driver registers the vehicle
				with the Department of Parking and Traffic.
b. The owner or driver, unless otherwise
				exempt, pays the appropriate fee and provides proof of the decal classification
				to which he or she is entitled.
c.
				The owner or driver settles all outstanding parking and traffic fines and fees
				before a current decal or permit will be issued.
d. When two or more persons who are employed
				by the University reside in the same household and register more than one
				vehicle, each is required to purchase a separate original decal; duplicate
				decals will not be issued for either person except upon proof of replacement of
				the originally registered vehicle. If two or more persons travel together in
				one vehicle, only one decal is required but a duplicate decal cannot be
				purchased except upon proof of replacement of the originally registered
				vehicle.
