State Motor Vehicle Liability Self-Insurance Program

The State of California Office of Risk and Insurance Management (ORIM) administers the State Motor Vehicle Liability Self-Insurance Program (VELSIP), which provides unlimited self-insured liability coverage for state agencies including the California State University (CSU) and its salaried employees who operate covered self-propelled land vehicles on state business. The VELSIP provides excess liability coverage for pre-approved state employees on state business while driving non-state vehicles, but only after the vehicle owner's liability policy limits have been paid. The VELSIP does not provide coverage for injury to university employees or for damage to University vehicles.
