PART 500_MIGRANT AND SEASONAL AGRICULTURAL WORKER PROTECTION--Table of

   Subpart D_Motor Vehicle Safety and Insurance for Transportation of 
Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Workers, Housing Safety and Health for 
                             Migrant Workers
 
Sec. 500.120  Insurance policy or liability bond is required for each 
vehicle used to transport any migrant or seasonal agricultural worker.

    A farm labor contractor, agricultural employer or agricultural 
association shall not transport any migrant or seasonal agricultural 
worker or his property in any vehicle such contractor, employer or 
association owns, operates, controls, or causes to be operated unless he 
has an insurance policy or liability bond in effect which insures 
against liability for damage to persons or property arising from the 
ownership, operation, or causing to be operated of such vehicle. 
Generally, the owner or lessor of the vehicle will be responsible for 
providing the required insurance. The insurance requirements do not 
apply to vehicles involved in carpooling arrangements made by the 
workers themselves, using one of the workers' own vehicles and not 
specifically directed or requested by an agricultural employer or 
agricultural association. However, carpooling does not include any 
transportation arrangement in which a farm labor contractor 
participates. Activities exempt from transportation safety standards are 
also exempt from insurance requirements. (See also Sec. 500.103.)
