Ah, Vermont; one of my favorite jurisdictions in America. Two of the most enchanting destinations include Burlington—a small first city with equal parts pleasant walking, college town, and wonderful views—and the Smuggler's Notch scenic road—a drive through a mountain pass so tight that it has to be closed during the winter. It should only follow that the license plates be as wonderful.

The designs haven't changed much through the modern vehicular history of the state, as it's far from broke [sic].

Identifiability: It's hard to miss this plate on the road.

Colors: I'm a fan of this choice of distinct and serene kelly green not dissimilar from the US interstate signage. The clean white is an obvious choice to match.

Typeface: The long bend in the '2' and the hiked up pants on the '5' and the 'P' partake in a quirky typeface for the serial that this writer believes to match the ethos of the state. The serif'ed font identifying "Vermont" offers a balance to the serial that I would appreciate in any plate design.

Symbols: "Green Mountain State", the use of the color green, the maple tree almost ironically displayed in white. Straightforward, subtle.

Clarity: All the component parts come together in a way that can be instantly recognized with no need for a gimmick. No questions are left unanswered.

I cannot offer enough praise for this license plate. So simple, clean, purposeful, and unique. A formula oft imitated but an effect rarely matched. Overall, likely my favorite license plate.
