MOTORCYCLE AWARENESS CLASSROOM TRAINING
A bill passed by the General Assembly gave the Commissioner of Motor
Vehicles the discretion to require any applicant to successfully complete
and approved classroom training curriculum before a Motorcycle Learner
Permit or motorcycle endorsement may be issued.
The Motorcycle Awareness Program is a 3½ to 4 hour classroom course
that has been developed in partnership with the “Motorcycle Safety
Foundation”. A pilot course is currently being implemented. The pilot
course will initially run on a voluntary basis, but once is has been tested
and proven to be effective, it is planned to make the course mandatory
for anyone wishing to obtain a Motorcycle Learner Permit or motorcycle
endorsement.
LIABILITY INSURANCE IS REQUIRED
It is unlawful for any owner or operator to operate or permit the
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 and points on your driving record. 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.
