Motorcycle Guidelines
Permits
A valid Baylor permit is required to park on campus Monday-Friday 7:00 AM- 5:00 PM.
Motorcycle Permits are virtual and tied to the license plate number. Permits can be ordered in the Parking Services office starting early August once student permits become available for purchase.
The registered license plate information must also be correct and updated by the permit owner.
Motorcycles are encouraged to park in specially designated motorcycle spaces.
Motorcycle permits do allow for parking in regular automobile spaces (Student zones excluding 5th Street Garage Lot 5 and Non Reserved Faculty/Staff). Visit Motorcycle Permits for more information.
Authorization to park in special areas can only be granted by written permission from Parking and Transportation Services.
Motorcycle permits are NOT transferable and are only good for one specific vehicle. Update your parking account if you change license plates or motorcycles.
Motorcycles parking on campus without displaying a license plate may be towed at the owner/operators’ expense.
Operation
Motorcycles are motorized vehicles and will be expected to operate exclusively on vehicle roadways. Motorcycles are NOT allowed to operate/drive on sidewalks, grass areas or closed streets on campus. Failure to adhere to these regulations may result in a moving violation.
A valid Motorcycle driver's license endorsement is required to operate these vehicles. Visit the Texas Department of Public Safety website for more information.
Motorcycle/Moped Classification
Mopeds and motorcycles are classified as two different types of vehicles. Motorcycles have a “rider’s saddle” that require the operator to straddle the vehicle. Mopeds have a seat and floorboard where the operator’s feet could be placed side by side.
Vehicles in this category with any modifications or not fitting these descriptions will be classified at the discretion of Parking and Transportation Services.
