According to police reports, a 26-year-old man from Derby, identified as Devin West, was charged with speeding after a traffic stop on Interstate 91 in Barton on February 20, 2026. The incident occurred around 7:00 PM when a Vermont State Police patrol observed West’s vehicle traveling at 103 miles per hour in a zone with a posted limit of 65 miles per hour.
Police say that after the traffic stop, West was issued a speeding ticket and received a citation to appear in Orleans Superior Court. The vehicle involved was a Subaru Crosstrek, which was clocked at nearly 40 miles per hour over the limit.
West is scheduled to appear in court on May 12, 2026, at 8:30 AM to address the charges. It is important to note that the allegations against him are not a determination of guilt, and the legal process will continue as the case progresses.
