This is a Little Rock Air Force Base Installation Traffic Code instruction that establishes motor vehicle traffic supervision policies and procedures for all personnel operating vehicles on the installation.
The instruction implements AFI 31-218(I) and applies to military personnel, civilians, Guard and Reserve personnel, and their family members. Key requirements include: operators must possess valid driver's licenses from Arkansas or their home state, current vehicle registration, and proof of insurance; international driver's licenses are not recognized except for foreign national students temporarily assigned for training. The document establishes a traffic point system for violations, with suspension and revocation procedures administered by the 19 MSG/CC or 19 MSG/CD. Major policy areas include speed limits (35 mph base standard, 15 mph in school and recreation zones), mandatory seatbelt use, child passenger restraint requirements (children under 6 or under 60 pounds), cell phone restrictions (hands-free devices only), prohibited radar detection devices, and specific requirements for motorcycles including mandatory safety training and personal protective equipment. Impoundment procedures apply to abandoned vehicles (defined as remaining in same location for three or more consecutive days, missing major parts, or lacking current registration). The instruction also addresses drunk driving enforcement with mandatory revocation upon apprehension, accident investigation procedures for major incidents (fatalities, injuries, or damage exceeding $10,000), parking regulations including reserved space designations, and equipment requirements such as headlights, tail lights, mirrors, and mufflers. Administrative hearing procedures are available for suspension and revocation actions, with specific timelines and processes outlined for active duty personnel, civilians, and retirees.

INTRODUCTION
1.1. Program Management. This instruction implements policy, assigns responsibility and establishes procedures for motor vehicle traffic supervision on Little Rock Air Force Base. This instruction provides additional Little Rock AFB specific guidance to complement guidance found in AFI 31-218(I). The objective of traffic control programs is to facilitate a safe and efficient flow of vehicles and pedestrians through reduction of factors contributing to accidents. Arkansas
Criminal and Traffic Law will apply to any violations not defined in this instruction.
1.2. Responsibilities. Installation Defense Force Commander (DFC). The DFC is the Installation
Commander's principal advisor on issues pertaining to the lawful movement of personnel and traffic. The DFC exercises staff responsibility for directing, regulating and controlling traffic, and enforcing installation rules pertaining to traffic control. DFCs assist traffic engineers by performing traffic control studies to gather information on traffic problems and use patterns.
1.3. Delegation of Authority. Installation commanders may delegate their responsibilities under this instruction to their vice commanders, mission support group commanders or other group commanders as appropriate, provided the individual does not occupy a position such as law enforcement which would constitute a conflict of interest. Commanders should coordinate letters of delegation through the office of the Staff Judge Advocate (SJA).
1.3.1. The 19 MSG/CC and 19 MSG/CD are the designated officials for administration of this instruction
LITTLEROCKAFBI31-218 15 DECEMBER 2025 5
Chapter 2
DRIVING PRIVILEGES
2.1. Requirements for Driving Privileges. International driver’s licenses are not recognized on
Little Rock AFB, with the exception of foreign national students who are temporarily assigned to
LRAFB for training. All motor vehicle operators will have a valid driver’s license from Arkansas or their home state, valid vehicle registration, and current insurance on the vehicle being operated.
The use of electronic insurance cards is authorized.
2.2. Stopping and Inspecting Personnel or Vehicles.
2.2.1. DAFI 31-101, Integrated Defense, and AFI 10-245, Antiterrorism, require Installation
Commanders to develop instructions and guidance that detail stop, inspection, search and impoundment of motor vehicles at CONUS installation entry gates, to include Air Force restricted and controlled areas.
2.2.2. Installation Entry/Exit Vehicle Checks (IEVC). The requirements of this program are defined in the 19th Airlift Wing Base Antiterrorism and Defense Plan 101-25 dated 15 August
2025.
2.3. Implied Consent to Blood, Breath or Urine Tests. This requirement must be outlined as part of installation newcomer’s briefings and/or in-processing of newly assigned personnel.
Persons who drive on the installation shall be deemed to have given their consent to evidential tests for alcohol or other drug content of their blood, breath, or urine when lawfully stopped, apprehended, or cited for any offense allegedly committed while driving or in physical control of a motor vehicle on military installations to determine the influence of intoxicants. Unit
Commanders are responsible to brief newly assigned personnel on the Implied Consent requirements outlined in AFI 31-218(I) and ACTLM 5-65-205. Failure to comply with the Implied
Consent requirement may have the driving privileges suspended or revoked.
2.4. Implied Consent to Vehicle Impoundment. In addition to those conditions for impoundment listed in AFI 31-218(I), local situations may arise that require impoundment. The determination will be made by the Installation Commander or designee. Installation and unit commanders must view the abandonment of personal property as a personnel management issue and be diligent in deterring occurrences. Commanders must include the consequences when personal property is abandoned during familiarization and indoctrination training into units.
Additionally, measures must be established to ensure personal effects are cleared prior to personnel departing on permanent change-of-station orders.
2.4.1. A vehicle will be considered abandoned when the vehicle meets one of the following requirements: has major parts missing making it currently immobile, has no current license plate or expired registration, or must have remained at the same location for a period of three or more consecutive days. All attempts to locate the owner via NCIC will be completed prior to completing a DD Form 2504, Abandoned Vehicle Notice. If the vehicle is not removed within 72 hours of the time on the abandoned vehicle notice, S2I will process the vehicle for impoundment. The 19th Logistics Readiness Squadron or local civilian towing agency has been designated by the 19 MSG/CC to tow vehicles that have been identified as abandoned on
LRAFB and will be towed to the Security Forces impound lot or local civilian storage lot. Once impounded, a DD Form 2506, Vehicle Impoundment Report, will be completed to include all
6 LITTLEROCKAFBI31-218 15 DECEMBER 2025
appropriate boxes marked. A photo of all sides of the vehicle will be taken and a blotter entry made. All pertinent facts, conditions, and contents of the vehicle will be included within the
DD Form 2506. All high dollar value items in the vehicle will be accounted for on an AF Form

2.5. Suspension or Revocation of Driving Privileges. The 19 MSG/CC must incorporate procedures governing suspension and revocation in base publications or as a supplement to this instruction. Security Forces personnel will follow the administrative due process for suspensions detailed in AFI 31-218(I).
2.5.1. Suspensions.
2.5.1.1. The 19 MSG/CC determines suspension and revocation guidance for non- moving violations, as well as what constitutes a non-moving violation on their installation (i.e., performing unauthorized repair; failure to register and insure vehicles; unauthorized modifications or alterations; failure to maintain safety standards, etc.). See Attachment 4 for the “Rules of the Road” on Little Rock AFB.
2.5.1.2. Underage Driving Under the Influence. Any person under the age of 21 operating or in actual physical control of a motor vehicle with a blood alcohol content of 0.02% or higher but less than 0.08% as determined by a chemical test of the underage person’s blood, breath or other bodily substance shall be considered DUI IAW ACTLM 5- 65-303.
2.5.1.3. Any driver cited two times within one year for use of a cell phone without a hands-free device will have their driving privileges suspended for at least one year.
2.5.2. Revocation.
2.5.2.1. The 19 MSG/CC will immediately revoke driving privileges for a period of not less than one year when a serious incident involving a motor vehicle occurs and the 19
MSG/CC determines immediate revocation of driving privileges is required to preserve public safety or the good order and discipline of military personnel.
2.5.2.2. A suspension or revocation of driving privileges is a prohibition of operating all motor vehicles to include mopeds and scooters under 40cc.
2.5.2.3. For intoxicated driving cases, the revocation is mandatory upon apprehension by
19 SFS or by civilian police departments or other findings that confirm the charge. Driving privileges may be reinstated upon acquittal of charges. Individuals who violate Implied
Consent Law will not have their privileges reinstated even if there is an acquittal.
2.5.2.4. If multiple suspensions/revocations are imposed, they will run consecutively. In cases involving extensions of suspensions/revocations, the date of the new revocation will be the effective date of the most recent incident.
2.5.2.5. In cases involving extensions of revocations, the date of the new revocation will be the effective date of the most recent incident.
2.5.2.6. After consultation with 19 AW/JA commanders direct drug and/or alcohol testing within 24 hours of alcohol related incidents or misconduct, and the member refuses to provide consent for testing.
LITTLEROCKAFBI31-218 15 DECEMBER 2025 7
2.5.2.7. Each respective unit commander is responsible for ensuring their member attends the Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention and Treatment program (ADAPT) following any alcohol related incident. For further information contact the 19 MDG/Mental Health. Ref:
AFI 44-121
2.5.2.8. For those individuals involved in drunk driving or driving while impaired incidents, whose civilian driver’s license is not suspended, their unit commander may make a written request for on-base driving privileges for GOVs only. This request must be coordinated through the respective unit commander. The written request will then be forwarded to the 19 MSG/CC or 19 MSG/CD via the 19 SFS/S5R section for final approval. If the request is denied, the unit commander may appeal to 19 AW/CC. The request must include compelling reasons where there is an extreme hardship and no other workable alternative.
2.5.3. Administrative Hearings
2.5.3.1. Requests for administrative hearings must be made in writing no later than 14 calendar days from the date of the incident or the date the intent letter was issued. Active duty personnel and their family members requesting an administrative hearing will submit a memorandum outlining the reason for the request and will forward the memorandum to their commander for endorsement. The letter must be endorsed by his/her commander. The purpose of this endorsement is to ensure commander-level involvement. The commander must either concur or non-concur with the administrative hearing request and provide brief justification of that decision. Retired personnel or civilians with no military affiliation will be allowed to submit their written administrative hearing requests without a commander’s endorsement.
2.5.3.2. All administrative hearings will be scheduled NLT 14 days after request is received.
2.5.3.3. Individuals with suspended or revoked driving privileges may request limited privileges only in unique and extenuating circumstances, which impact mission accomplishment or when the suspension/revocation would cause unusual personal or family hardship. Limited privileges will not be granted for personal convenience, i.e., to shop at the Commissary or the Main Exchange or for routine appointments. Personnel requesting limited driving privileges will submit a memorandum outlining the reason for the request and will forward the memorandum to their commander for endorsement. The letter must be endorsed by his/her commander. The purpose of this endorsement is to ensure commander-level involvement.

Requests must be submitted to the 19 SFS/S5R, who in-turn sends the request and entire revocation package to the 19 MSG/CC or 19 MSG/CD for approval/determination. The approval authority may deny, grant, or partially grant the request. The approval authority will respond to the request in writing, outlining the reason for denial or conditions of approval. The requestor should respond to the 19 SFS/S5R and acknowledge receipt for the finding within three duty days.
2.5.3.4. Individuals involved in drunk driving or driving while impaired incidents, whose civilian driver’s license is not suspended, may request limited driving privileges or probation pending adjudication or administrative action. The letter must be endorsed by
8 LITTLEROCKAFBI31-218 15 DECEMBER 2025
his/her commander. The purpose of this endorsement is to ensure commander-level involvement. The commander must either concur or non-concur with the administrative hearing request and provide brief justification of that decision. The written request will be forwarded through their command to the 19 SFS/S5R office. The written request will then be forwarded to 19 MSG/CC or 19 MSG/CD for final approval. The request must include compelling reasons where there is an extreme hardship and no other workable alternative.
The request must also cite at least one of the issues outlined in AFI 31-218(I) 2-6.c.(9).

This information will include the accident type, time and date, location, name(s) of vehicle operator(s), unit (or address when civilian not affiliated with military), vehicle description and license number(s)/plate. Also, include a brief summary of any damage and circumstances behind or causing the accident, as well as any traffic citations issued.
4.4.5. Investigation conducted by Security Forces and/or OSI of any traffic accident will take precedence over any other types of investigations relating to the accident. This precludes the loss of any potential evidence that may later have to be introduced in any criminal/judicial proceedings. (Example: Any safety related investigation and/or any other investigation that may hamper accident investigation practices by Security Forces and/or OSI.)
4.5. Parking.
4.5.1. Reserved parking sign authority has been delegated to the 19 MSG/CC. All signs will be made by 19 CES. Strictly limit the number of reserved parking signs.

Curb signs may be used in conjunction with freestanding signs.. Van accessible signs will be mounted directly under the handicap sign, and sized to compliment the handicap sign it is mounted to. Dimension for a handicap signs are: 1 foot by 1 foot 6-inches, letters are 1 1/2 inch upper case and 1 1/2 inch lower case, emblem is 7-inches. Arrow sign is 1 foot by 6-inches.
4.5.2. Use distinctive emblems, decals, stickers, etc., to control parking space assignments and to indicate authorized use of the parking slot. MAJCOMs (or Installation Commanders if not addressed by the MAJCOM) may develop guidance concerning the issue and control of the identification media discussed above. Designation of parking spaces by name, grade, rank or title should be avoided due to force protection concerns.
4.5.3. A vehicle being parked illegally for an “unreasonable period” is defined as not less than
72 hours. Vehicles are subject to tow at the owner's expense after expiration of this period. The term “abandoned” is defined as the owner/operator of the vehicle leaving the vehicle unattended without intending to return or claim again.

NOTES:
1. Preliminary Suspension: Security Forces personnel issue a letter immediately to suspend installation driving privileges pending resolution of an intoxicated driving incident which involves active duty military personnel (all branches), their family members, retirees, and all civilians. This applies regardless of the geographic location of an intoxicated driving incident.
2. Repeat drunk driving or driving while impaired Offenses: If an offender receives a second drunk driving or driving while impaired within 5 years, the revocation time will be added from the date of the latest incident. For example, if the offender is suspended from June 2009 for one year and receives a second drunk driving or driving while impaired in Sept 2009 the offender would be suspended for 5 years from Sept 2009. Anyone who has more than three drunk driving or driving while impaired incidents within 5 years will be suspended indefinitely.
