Proof of Insurance
You must carry a proof of insurance in your vehicle at all times. Proof of financial responsibility must be shown if a law enforcement officer stops you and asks for it. If you are unable to show proof of insurance, you will be given 20 days to present evidence. Failing which, fines will be imposed.
Adequacy of Coverage
25/50/15 is the minimum requirement for auto insurance in Vermont. Yet this may not be sufficient coverage to properly take care of damage, injury, or valuable assets. You are advised to carry sufficient insurance to take care of possible financial loss in the event of an automobile accident.
We also suggest getting quotes from multiple companies to ensure you get the best rate. There is no obligation to purchase from any particular insurance companies from whom you’ll obtain quotes.
