VERGENNES — Vergennes police recently ticketed two commercial trucks, with one of them proving to be particularly costly for a person caught driving a significantly overweight vehicle on Monkton Road without a permit.

That came on Oct. 28, when police stopped an eastbound truck taking a shortcut on Monkton Road and discovered it was 33,700 pounds over the legal weight limit. Police assessed an $8,600 violation to the company that owns the truck.

Police ticketed another commercial vehicle for speeding on West Main Street on Oct. 25.

Also between Oct. 25 and 31, Vergennes police conducted 16 patrols in cruisers and four on foot, performed one property watch and one VIN inspection, responded to one false alarm and one 911 hang-up call, and:

  • Asked unauthorized people at the 45 Armory Lane affordable housing complex to leave the area; they complied.
