An employee, who uses his personal automobile for County service, shall provide a vehicle which is in good repair and whose appearance will not bring discredit upon the Department or the County. Campers and motorcycles shall not be used when conducting investigations or representing the Department unless such vehicle is being used as a "cover". Additionally, Unit Commanders shall annually review all personal vehicles used in the County service by their assigned Unit personnel to ensure that they fall within the provisions of this policy.
The use of license plates other than those issued by the California Department of Motor Vehicles is prohibited. Any exception is to be for temporary Department purposes as authorized by the Unit Commander.
