Can Traffic Officers require a driver to fit snow chains on their tires?
Signage: General rules
Explanation
Traffic **officers** have the authority to give orders that must always be followed, including the obligation to put **chains on the tires** if the **weather conditions** require it. This is important to ensure road safety during adverse weather conditions, such as snow or ice, where chains can improve traction and prevent accidents.
Officers can use different means to give their instructions, such as arm signals or from a vehicle, and these must be visible from a considerable distance to ensure that all drivers can see and follow them. Therefore, if an officer indicates that it is necessary to use chains, it is mandatory to do so to comply with road safety regulations.
