PLEASE NOTE: A valid MSU ID is required when utilizing this service.

 

Please review this acknowledgement prior to requesting your ride.

By logging onto the ASMSU Safe Ride service or using the ASMSU Safe Ride service, and in consideration of the opportunity to use the Safe Ride Service, I understand and voluntarily accept the following terms of use:

  • I acknowledge that there are risks inherent in the use of the ASMSU Safe Ride service and I voluntarily and knowingly assume all such risks.
  • I release, waive, and discharge ASMSU, MSU, its officers, directors, employees, agents, volunteers, and contractors (collectively, “Releasees”) from any and all claims arising from the use of the ASMSU Safe Ride service that may result in personal injury, accident, illness or property loss. As part of this release, waiver, and discharge, I agree not to sue Releasees in connection with any such injury, accident, illness, or loss.
  • I agree to defend, indemnify, and hold Releasees harmless from any and all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, and expenses, including attorney fees, and to reimburse Releasees for any such expense incurred in connection with, or as a result of, my use of the ASMSU Safe Ride service.
  • I agree that the cost of any mess I create and any damage I cause to the vehicle will be my responsibility and charged to my University Student Account ranging from $50-$200. This includes, but is not limited to trash, spilled food, or the cleanup of bodily fluids.
  • I agree to not cause any nuisance, annoyance, inconvenience, or property damage to the ASMSU Safe Ride service provider or any other party that may be using the ASMSU Safe Ride service.
  • I agree that I may be denied the use of the ASMSU Safe Ride service if I refuse to provide proof of identity and/or fail to abide by the terms of use found at https://asmsu.msu.edu/services/safe-ride/
  • I am aware that ASMSU provides undergraduate students with free transportation to and from in–person
    classes and employment obligations. I understand that ASMSU does not own or operate the vehicles used
    in its Safe Ride service, but that ASMSU has hired Dean Charters and Tours, Inc. (“DEAN), to provide all
    drivers and vehicles for its Safe Ride service. I am also aware that the novel coronavirus has caused a
    worldwide pandemic of a respiratory illness called COVID–19.
  • I acknowledge that COVID–19 is extremely contagious and can spread by person–to–person contact, contact
    with contaminated surfaces and objects, or through the air, and can cause potentially life–threatening illness,
    injury, and even death. I understand that ASMSU and DEAN cannot prevent me from becoming exposed
    to, contracting, or spreading COVID–19 while utilizing ASMSU’s Safe Ride service. Although precautions
    have been put in place, it is not possible to ensure against the presence of the disease. Therefore, if I choose
    to utilize ASMSU’s Safe Ride service, I may be exposing myself to and/or increasing my risk of contracting
    or spreading COVID–19. To help keep everyone safe from exposure, sickness and/or possible death from
    COVID–19, I agree to adhere to the following terms and protocols, unless medical conditions prevent me
    from doing so, when using the Safe Ride service:
    • Use an alcohol–based hand sanitizer when I enter the Safe Ride vehicle and after I touch any doors,
      seats, seatbelts, or other items exposed to touching by other person(s).
    • Wear a face mask at all times.
    • Note: If I test positive for the coronavirus, ASMSU and DEAN may be required to notify local health
      authorities, MSU, or other reporting agencies that I have used the Safe Ride service and may have been in
      contact with our staff or other persons. By signing this form, I am agreeing that ASMSU may make such a
      report without an additional signed release.
