Transportation Services provides safe and reliable transportation options to meet the needs of faculty, staff and students on and off campus.
We rent vehicles from our college-owned motor pool to faculty, staff and student organizations conducting college-related business. Vehicles are scheduled based on availability and occupancy to best utilize our resources. Our staff maintain vehicles on a regular basis to ensure each vehicle’s safety and operational efficiency.
Important Update: Michigan Hands-Free
Michigan “Hands Free” has gone into effect as of Friday, June 30, 2023.
Even if a cell phone or other device is mounted on your dashboard or connected to your vehicle’s built-in system, you cannot use your hands to operate it beyond a single touch.
As a result, you cannot manually do any of the following on a cell phone or other electronic device while driving.
- Make or answer a telephone or video call
- Send or read a text or email message
- Watch, record or send a video
- Access, read or post to social media
- Browse or use the internet
- Enter information into GPS or a navigation system
The law makes holding or manually using a cell phone or other mobile electronic device while operating a vehicle a primary offense — which means an officer can stop and ticket drivers for this violation.
Hope College has updated the Distracted Driver Policy. Find more information on the Michigan Hands Free law at the Michigan State Police website.
