    FYI: for those who pride themselves on their trip planning ahead....the RM Trucker Atlas clearly shows that "Smugglers' Notch" is NOT truck rated.

    ALSO: VT-108 is listed near the front of same said atlas....in the Vermont table of "Restricted Routes". :rolleyes:

    But wait....there's more: should I go ahead....& go waaaaaaayyy out on a limb here....& guess that the driver in this sappy saga....couldn't read/understand the road signs...advising of the restriction ahead?!?

    :dontknow:

    No. Couldn't be a language barrier. With an obviously American name like "Jackson Mulindwa?" I can't believe it; I simply won't.

    They did-with chicanes included. But the stupidity never ends. In fact a couple of drivers got stuck the day they were installed!lol
