Since 1996 the federal government requires that all states participate in a program that prevents individuals who have had a suspension issued to them in one state (or more than one state) from obtaining a license in another state. A nationwide system tracks all drivers (or potential drivers) to prevent the issuance of a license to a suspended person.
The Vermont Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is warning residents about an increase in scam messages falsely claiming that drivers are at risk of license suspension if they do not pay outstanding tolls.
- The Vermont DMV does not send unsolicited messages demanding immediate payment.
- Official DMV notices come via mail or direct communication from verified sources.
- Do not click links or provide personal information if you receive an unexpected message about toll payments.
