Section 41-17-8

Maintenance and repair of state-owned automobiles.

All state automobiles shall be maintained and repaired at cost by the bureau of equipment of the State Department of Transportation or by the Public Safety Department, and all gasoline, lubrication jobs, grease jobs, oil changes, tires and car washes for state automobiles shall be obtained at the facilities of such departments, except in cases which constitute emergencies or whenever such departments are unable to handle the work load or when it is adjudged to be more economical by reason of time or distance to obtain such services elsewhere. The Director of Finance may, however, promulgate reasonable regulations permitting services to be obtained for state automobiles from other sources under such circumstances or conditions as may be necessary or expeditious.
