ADDISON COUNTY — In an otherwise quiet week, Vermont State Police working out of the New Haven barracks had only one encounter with the public that troopers deemed worthy of reporting to the public.

On Jan 3 at a few minutes after 11 p.m. a state police officer saw a car traveling at 81 mph in a 50 mph zone on Route 7 near Round Barn Road in Ferrisburgh. The trooper, who also saw multiple motor vehicle violations pertaining to the car, stopped it and identified the driver as Daniel E. Field, 62, of Brandon. Suspicious of his suitability to drive, troopers took Field to the Middlebury Police Department for processing where he was later released with citation for driving under the influence, negligent driving and speeding.
