Vehicle Inspections

Don't Let This Happen To You

Twice each year (prior to winter and spring breaks), Washington University Police and Parking Services, in partnership with Hartmann's Towing, sponsor a free Traveler's Vehicle Inspection service to student's, faculty and staff. Persons anticipating traveling by car for break can bring their vehicle to the parking lot outside the Police Department Office on the South 40 between noon-3pm for a free inspection. Staff will check tire pressure, fluid levels, wipers, and head and taillights. Local businesses have donated oil and windshield washer fluid to allow us to top off fluids before traveling.

Please check the annoucement page for the exact date.

"Too often we all neglect to check our vehicles before taking off on a trip," said Chief of Police Don Strom. "This is a great, quick and easy opportunity for members of our campus community to get their vehicles inspected and help ensure they have a safe trip over the upcoming holidays."

The WUPD Bear Patrol will assist the Police and Parking staff.
