17 AAC 45.080 - General vehicle rules
(a) A person may operate a vehicle on an
airport only in accordance with
17 AAC 45.020,
17 AAC 45.085, this section, and
other applicable law.
(b) A person
may not access an airport by vehicle from property outside the airport boundary
other than on a public road, trail, or way provided for that purpose and not
posted by the department as closed to airport access, except as specifically
provided under an airport boundary crossing permit issued under
17 AAC 45.285.
(c) Subject to
17 AAC 45.030, an aircraft
operated on an airport has the right-of-way over a vehicle on the airport. The
operator of a vehicle on an airport may not interfere with or cause a hazard to
the movement of aircraft on the airport.
(d) A person may not operate a vehicle on an
airport in excess of a speed limit posted by the airport manager for that
airport roadway or area. On an airport roadway or area for which the airport
manager has not posted a speed limit, a person may not operate a vehicle in
excess of 25 miles per hour. This subsection does not apply to a person
operating an emergency vehicle responding to an emergency.
(e) A person may not park a vehicle inside a
department-operated terminal building, except while loading or unloading
baggage or freight at a location designated for that purpose, unless the
airport manager has otherwise approved in writing.
(f) A person who brings a vehicle onto or
keeps a vehicle on an airport does so at the person's own risk with respect to
security, maintenance, and operation of the vehicle. The department is
responsible for the security, maintenance, or operation of a vehicle on an
airport only if the department owns or leases the vehicle.
(g) A person operating a vehicle on an
airport operated by the department under 14 C.F.R. Part 139 must be in
possession of an operator's license, current and issued to the person, required
