MUTCD Signage Defect — Vermont Adoption

Vermont adopts the MUTCD by reference (23 V.S.A. §1025 / VTrans regulations). Particularly relevant in winter, when snowbanks routinely obscure parking restriction signs in Burlington, Montpelier, Stowe, and other towns. Photograph from driver's-eye view; document any obstruction or contradictory adjacent signs. The Vermont Judicial Bureau's clear-and-convincing standard makes this defense particularly potent.

Legal basis

23 V.S.A. §1025; MUTCD Part 2B; 4 V.S.A. §1105

Sample appeal wording

[Use the Maine USA-ME-009 signage template substituting 23 V.S.A. §1025 for 23 M.R.S. §1402.]

Replace [PARKING DATE], [NtK DATE] etc. with your own dates before sending.
