TripCheck Update Chain Regulation Expands ODOT has amended the state's chain regulations to add a new snow zone condition. Under the new condition, you must use chains if your vehicle is:
Rated 10,000 pounds gross vehicle weight (GVW) or less and is towing.
A single drive axle vehicle rated over 10,000 pounds GVW whether towing or not.
Chains must also be used on the trailer or vehicle being towed if it has a brake that operates while in tow.
More information including minimum chain requirements and examples of the snow zone signs is available under 'Winter Travel'. Click here for additional information Updated: 11/05/2009 2:09 pm |
