Moving Violations
Drivers on campus are expected to operate their vehicles in a safe and legal manner in accordance with the Illinois Vehicle Code. Drivers are expected to obey campus stop and yield signs, exercise caution near pedestrian crossing areas, obey the 15 mph campus speed limit, not drive on the wrong side of the road, not drive on campus grassy areas or sidewalks or foot bridges, and in general demonstrate concern for the safety of themselves and others when operating their vehicles. Drivers who are witnessed by Campus Safety operating their vehicle in a reckless or unsafe manner may be subject to a $25 fine as well as possible revocation of campus parking privileges.
Citation Appeals
Citation appeals must be made within seven (7) school days of receiving the violation, and must be made using an official appeal form.
You can download the PDF Document version and you can also appeal using an online form. Copies of the appeal form are also in the Campus Safety Office.
There is no charge to appeal a parking violation. No appeal can be made on a citation after the semester has ended.
