A 3-minute lesson from the Vermont course. Read the rules and examples, follow the handbook page references, and check your understanding before you move on.
In Vermont, the vehicle you drive must be covered by liability insurance. It protects you from financial loss when someone is hurt or property is damaged. You must carry proof, and driving uninsured can cost you your license for a long time.
Maintenance of Financial Responsibility
Vermont's law requiring that the vehicle you drive be covered by liability insurance.
Liability and property damage are the most important types of auto insurance. They protect you against financial loss when bodily injury or property damage occurs.
An officer stops you and your insurance card is in your other car. You do have coverage. You have 15 days to show a card proving you were insured at the time of the stop. If you had no insurance at all, you'd get a ticket, a fine and 2 points.
