If I Am Hit By An Out-of-State Driver In Vermont Does That Mean I Have To Go Out-of-State To Make My Claim?

Generally, no.  Definitely not in for accidents that occur in Vermont.  Vermont has a statute that causes out-of-state drivers to submit to the jurisdiction of Vermont by the fact that they have used Vermont’s roads during their travels.  In other words, if they are driving on the roads resulting in an accident they have, by law, agreed to be sued in Vermont.
