Yes, this WAS confusing.

It’s not a bad idea, but can the state even hold google liable for something someone else did? Would this just add a line to the user agreement that says they aren’t liable if you don’t follow road signs? I have a feeling google would make the VT AG look silly in a court room trying to fine them $2000.

A better approach would be to install a chicane and prevent these trucks from getting through. In the absence of that, fine the driver $2000 and the trucking company $20,000.

Nope. We are failing our kids. It’s shameful. Lack of funding in the richest nation in the world isn’t an actual issue. We’ve got the money. It’s not just a Vermont issue either, we aren’t alone in this.

If they won't send anyone, just take pictures and file a report at the station.

Live in Stowe and haven't received the last 5 packages that were supposed to be delivered via USPS. They also don't update the status after getting it at their location. They just scan it once saying it is out for delivery and then don't do anything with it. We even went down to the post office to attempt to pick up and they advised they had over 2000 packages undelivered in Stowe so they could not find or give us the package for pick up.

Yup, waiting in Middlebury. Where did you end up going?

Wanna know a secret? They're all burnt out

I mean, fuck google fine them...but its hard to miss all the signs in front of you, we cant just start blaming gps for going down the wrong roads. Drivers need to understand common sense, especially in rural areas.

This is a state issue and Vermont is broke.

The question should not be "Who can afford to pay the fine?," the question should be "whose fault is it?"

It is, without a moment's hesitation, the driver's fault - its no different than if they followed a paper road map and ignored the fact the bridge they're trying to drive under is only 6 feet high.

READ the road signs.

Does $2,000 seem like a low fine to Google et al. to anybody else?

Doesn’t need to be in the millions, but I also think Google might make $2,000 every few seconds. That’s not even speaking of if they’d ever pay it given their legal teams.

It’s not an issue of funding, it’s an issue of priorities. We are the wealthiest country in the world. Money isn’t the problem here.

Most usps employees aren't allowed to talk to media, if you want to get an interview you'll have to probably contact the postmasters of those offices and they'll have to talk to their own higher management to get permission or have them set it up.

The education budget alone currently is over $2.5B. The entirety of revenue generated in the state is ~3.5-4B. Thinking that we have an extra pile of cash kicking around isn’t reality.

Funding for broad band is a one off. Building, staffing, and maintaining a school in Bloomfield for 5 kids is a reoccurring expense.

Doesn’t hurt to report it and see 🤷🏼‍♂️.

Sorry for misquoting you, that was actually unintentional. But still, regardless of the motivation, I don’t think I’ll ever understand why people think kidnapping someone else is a good idea.

USPS and UPS is always doing a wonderful job, but FedEx is so awful its like looking for easter eggs except all year round.

Are you going to pay a living wage?

Winner winner internet dinner

It's just a rash. If it were a mole I would raise hell. Thank you for letting me know they have options for really emergent things.

I'd drive to Burlington for this, can always toss in a Costco trip as well. Thanks for the tip!

They probably won't care
