When you find yourself asking these kinds of questions, the best option is to stay the fuck home.

Reply to A questions to Vermonters by RZRPRINCESS
I lived in vt my whole life, Beauty is definitely one reason, but I think people move here because there is more space and it’s a lot safer than a city. Many people don’t want to live in an overpopulated area, so they come up here from the big cities.

People that think they are going to slide off the road every time they change lanes so they never change lanes are the reason that people never change lanes.

Prove it with a source from the FBI or delete your bullshit.

I went to Rutland last month and both there and back on Route 4 through Killington I was following a car doing 40mph down the mountain riding their brakes the entire time. The roads were dry.
You do you I guess.

You know what's more dangerous that passing?
Having a line of cars driving unreasonably slow.

It's not starting until around midnight. I'd leave around 9pm tonight or, well, personally, I won't drive in it tomorrow at all. I'm in the northern half of the state so have no insight into those secondary roads but concur that you're unlikely to see them plowed until the snow stops.

Maybe federal level too. Remember how the train going through East Palestine wasn’t labeled properly with what it actually contained. Seems like that’s what’s going on here.

Avoid 100. Lacks cell service in many places. 7 is usually cleared faster and well traveled, less curves, and has spots that are wider and two lanes.

I have done 149 to 4 in a snowstorm and it was doable but very slow going. Hardest part is getting over the top of Killington

Could there be a flaw in the shutdown mechanism?

That's what's weird about this! What could cause more than two dozen, but not all, of the station's customers to have this exact set of problems, when no other station on the same street is getting these complaints? Multiple mechanics, too, and not always after a snowstorm.

Bratt doesn't have a mayor, we have a Selectboard and it's pretty toothless. I'd go state level first.

What is your point with this comment? I'm asking the community if anyone has had this done and what to watch out for. As you can see, there's a few different experiences and things to look into, which I appreciate. But thanks friend, since I'm obviously stupid I'll be sure to reach out if I need help dialing my provider!

Other states have "bare roads" plowing policies. Because that would cost taxpayers here a fortune, VT has a "safe roads at safe speeds" policy - essentially they'll do the best they can but you may not see pavement under the snow on some roads, so slow down and don't drive like a lunatic.

Two quick questions.
-
Why recruit here? It's nice to say transportation is "covered", but most folks I know couldn't get the time off work.
-
Why study this in specific? From a quick perusal of the lit, "health risks of HRT" seems fairly well-covered, whereas the questions patients are actually asking are so often met with "Nobody knows."

This is Vermont, we don't have the budget to waste money on overnight plowing for no reason other than out of staters who can't wait
