operation of a motor vehicle on the highways of Vermont without a
policy of liability insurance that is in effect.
A minimum coverage of $25,000 for death or injury to one person;
$50,000 for death or injury of two or more persons; and $10,000 for
property damage is required.
Proof of liability insurance coverage must be carried in the vehicle. If
you are stopped by a law enforcement officer you will be requested to
show proof of insurance to the officer. If you cannot, you may be subject
to a fine, points on your driving record and the requirement that you file
Financial Responsibility Insurance (SR-22) with the Vermont DMV for 3
years. If, at the time you are stopped, you have insurance but cannot
show proof, you have 15 days to produce the proof to the officer.
An automobile insurance identification card is required by Vermont law.
The card must contain the name of your insurance carrier, the effective
and expiration dates of coverage, the name of the insured and a
description of the vehicle (including the identification number). It also
must include limits of liability or a statement that the policy provides the
minimum insurance required by Vermont law.
Practice driving at DMV skill testing courses is
NOT permitted. These areas are to be used only
when tests are being conducted by an examiner.
