Hawaii Administrative Rules › Title 19 - DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION › Subtitle 2 - AIRPORTS DIVISION › Chapter 15.1 - OPERATION OF MOTOR VEHICLES AT PUBLIC AIRPORTS › Section 19-15.1-27 - Operational area; vehicle operations

Current through June, 2024
(a) No person shall
				ride on or operate a vehicle when the passenger load is in excess of the
				designated passenger capacity of that vehicle.
(b) No baggage cart train shall exceed six
				carts in length. Carts shall be maintained to track properly without
				"fishtailing." Carts with rotating beds shall be secure in the normal traveling
				position before being towed.
(c)
				All vehicles and containers shall be kept clear of the marked access way
				between aircraft positions except while underway to or from these
				positions.
(d) All vehicles shall
				be kept off the ramp and maintained in assigned vehicle positions except during
				actual servicing operations. During servicing operations, each vehicle shall
				remain within the assigned aircraft position being serviced and parked in such
				a way as not to interfere with operations at adjacent positions. Vehicles or
				service equipment, except those in assigned parking stalls and leased parking
				areas, found unattended or obstructing any portion of the operational area or
				any vehicular roadway, may be removed or towed at the owner's risk and expense
				without liability on the part of the department for any damage which may result
				from such removal.
(e) No vehicle
				shall overtake and pass another moving vehicle in a marked roadway on the
				operational area. A driver approaching a stopped vehicle in his lane shall come
				to a complete stop behind that vehicle, check for moving aircraft and
				approaching vehicles, then proceed carefully around the stopped vehicle,
				keeping within the marked roadway.
(f) The operator of a slow moving vehicle or
				piece of equipment shall not unduly impede the flow of traffic. The operator
				shall move off the marked roadway to the right, stop, and allow faster moving
				traffic to pass before returning to the roadway.
(g) All vehicles and baggage carts shall be
				kept clear of the baggage handling areas and roadways and in assigned areas.
				Carts, wagons or other containers shall be parked or stored with brakes set (or
				wheels chocked) and tow bars placed in an upright position.
(h) No baggage or container cart or cart
				train shall be operated on airport roadways or other airport areas unless the
				cart or cart train is properly loaded and secured in such a manner calculated
				to prevent any of the load from dropping, shifting, spilling, or otherwise
				escaping therefrom.
(i) No baggage
				or container cart or cart train shall be operated on airport roadways or other
				airport areas when any luggage, baggage, box or other article thereon is not
				entirely within the body of the cart or cart train; provided, however, that
				this prohibition shall not apply if a net is used to prevent such load from
				dropping onto roadway or from shifting in any manner.
(j) No vehicle shall be operated on airport
				roadways or other airport areas unless the vehicle is so constructed, covered,
				or loaded as to prevent any of its load other than clear water from dropping,
				shifting, leaking, spilling, or otherwise escaping therefrom.
