Penalties & Exemptions
Any violation of the rules is a traffic infraction punishable by a fine of not less than $250. Certain vehicles, such as public utility, emergency, school buses, heating fuel trucks (operating in accordance with a permit issued by the Maine Department of Transportation) are exempt, and for any other heavy vehicle, there is a permit process for requesting special permission to travel on these roads.
Should you require it, you may apply for a temporary permit to operate a vehicle on a posted way.
