Winter is just around the corner, and snow chains are often the key tool for commercial vehicles that are used in harsh winter conditions to drive safely and efficiently on snow-covered or icy roads.
Current regulations on snow chains for commercial vehicles
The regulations on the use of snow chains vary from country to country. In many European countries, the use of snow chains is mandatory, especially when driving in snowy regions. In Germany, snow chains may only be used on roads that are marked accordingly by road signs. Snow chains are also compulsory on certain routes in Austria, Norway, Sweden, Italy and France, especially in the Alpine regions.
