Statute of Limitations
Vermont has a 3-year statute of limitations for personal injury from truck accidents (12 VSA § 512). Modified comparative fault with 51% bar. Claims against VTrans or state entities require compliance with the Vermont Tort Claims Act (12 VSA § 5601) — notice within 90 days. Vermont's rural character means many crashes involve extended waits for emergency response.
