SNOW CHAINS MANDATORY
A new law is to make snow tyres or snow chains compulsory in mountain areas of France from 1st November until 31st March next year. Drivers of vehicles without snow tyres/ chains who are involved in a snow related accident or traffic jam will be liable to a 135€ fine. The law will apply in up to 48 departments of France that are in these designated mountain areas.

i had to fit my chains on one of our trips to Spain one year, not a lot of fun that , Police would not any one pass their check point if they had no chains Girls had fun making snowmen as we struggled to fit the chains.

Can`t see any snow-chains on the gritter / snow plough, did the Police let them carry on ?
