Are Snow Chains Allowed on Highways?

[MacDiana]

Snow chains are not allowed on highways. Their purpose is to be used when there is snow on the road to prevent traffic accidents. When snowy weather occurs, highways are usually closed. If the highway is not closed, there is typically no need to use snow chains, as using them under such conditions can pose traffic hazards. Additionally, snow chains should not be installed when the tire pressure is insufficient. Snow chains are generally made of steel or rubber and have anti-slip functions. Structurally, they can be divided into two types: pre-assembled cover-type chains and cross-installed individual chains. Snow chains come in size restrictions, suitable for different wheel hub sizes and tire widths, so it's important to choose chains that match your wheel dimensions.
