if you're in Middlebury it's also important to drive slow because there's a lot of crosswalks and a good number of them, especially downtown, don't have good visibility on the sides. So it's extra important to ensure you don't accidentally run someone over.

I call the stretch of 125 that goes through the college The Gauntlet because there's like 7 crosswalks and onstreet parking that obscures the sides when cars are parked there. Way too afraid of running a student over to even go the speed limit on that bit

but also in general it's good to keep to the speed limit in towns
