Common use of Operating Motor Vehicles Clause in Contracts

Operating Motor Vehicles. I understand that JMU strongly discourages students owning or operating vehicles during the study abroad term. Traffic congestion and different traffic laws and regulations, civil and criminal, can make driving motor vehicles in foreign countries extremely hazardous. Insurance requirements, or other financial responsibility laws, vary from country to country. If, however, I choose to operate a motor vehicle while abroad, I recognize that JMU assumes no financial responsibility for care or legal aid in the event of an accident while operating a motor vehicle.
