Your car has no winter tyres and needs chains to continue on a snow-covered road. When should you fit them?

Correct answer

Before entering the snowy stretch requiring chains, in a safe place.

Before continuing onto the stretch requiring them, with the vehicle stopped in a safe place. Do not wait until you become stuck. Follow officers, signs and vehicle and chain instructions about fitting and speed. They are normally fitted to the driven wheels. Do not use them on clear pavement when no longer needed.
