Yes. You will need to carry tire chains in your vehicle from November 1 to April 30 whether or not you actually use them. When CalTrans calls for chain restrictions, you will need to adhere to chain requirements. See Question 12 for levels of chain control.

Generally, 20 to 30 mph is the recommended speed limit for driving with snow chains. This helps prevent chains from breaking and from potentially damaging your vehicle. Do not drive on dry roads with chains as it can significantly wear down both the chains and your tire tread.

R1: Chains are required on all vehicles except passenger vehicles and light-duty trucks under 6,000 pounds gross weight and equipped with snow tires on at least two drive wheels. Chains must be carried by vehicles using snow tires. All vehicles towing trailers must have chains on one drive axle. Trailers with brakes must have chains on at least one axle.

Tire chains and cables are devices that improve traction in snow and ice. Chains provide better traction than cables, however cables are easier to install; both are acceptable under the law for most vehicles. Tire socks are also acceptable. Plastic devices, straps, and other emergency or alternative \"tire chains\" do not meet the legal requirement.

You can purchase chains or cables at most auto parts stores and gas stations, particularly in communities surrounding Yosemite National Park. A limited selection of chains is available for purchase at the Village Garage in Yosemite Valley and the Wawona gas station. Be sure to purchase chains or cables that match your tire size.

An alternative to using tire chains is to park your car at a YARTS bus stop on Highway 140 outside Yosemite (e.g., Mariposa or El Portal, depending on current chain control location), and use YARTS (which requires a fee) to travel into and out of Yosemite.

You must have tire chains or cables in your possession when entering a designated chain control area, even if you're driving a four-wheel drive or rental vehicle. (Designation is by a sign that says \"chains required.\") If you're driving a vehicle that doesn't allow tire chains, consider using YARTS to travel into Yosemite.

When you encounter a chain control sign that indicates chains are required for your vehicle, pull completely off the road into the turnout and put on your chains. Chain control signs are at the best locations for putting on chains. Put your chains on there, not further down the road, where it may be unsafe.

An alternative to using tire chains is to park your car on Highway 140 outside Yosemite, before you encounter any chain controls (the location of which varies based on conditions), at a YARTS bus stop and use YARTS to travel into and out of Yosemite (fee required).

When road conditions deteriorate, the parks will activate chain control zones on park roads. This can occur at any time, but is most common in November through March. State law requires ALL vehicles (including 4-wheel and all-wheel drive) to carry tire chains or cables when entering chain-control zones (CA Vehicle Code, Section 605, Sections 27450-27503). All vehicles must have chains or cables that fit properly and are in good repair. When you drive with chains, the maximum speed limit is 25 MPH, even if posted otherwise. If you do not have chains or cables, plan on renting or buying them before entering the parks. Road conditions and chain requirements can change rapidly; for example, you may not need chains when you enter the park but they may be required by the time you leave.

Watch our short Snow Chains and Cables video for information about when to use them. Signs along the road will indicate where you need to put them on when they are required; pull all the way off the road. Put them on the front tires of front-wheel-drive vehicles, and on the back tires of rear-wheel-drive vehicles.

Many car rental contracts do not allow installation of tire chains or cables on their vehicles. Be sure you understand the limitations of your contract. Renting a four-wheel or all-wheel-drive vehicle may save you from having to install chains or cables, even when you must carry them.

Most of the time you can drive to Tahoe without snow tires or chains,. Very rarely you will need them. If it is a storm that drops enough snow requiring them you just do one of two things. Wait out the storm or buy chains at any auto parts store. Only a few miles of the drive from LA to Tahoe even gets any snow. Dont worry about it.

Even when we drive our own vehicle into Yosemite in the winter with no snow on the ground, you have to show snow chains before you enter the park. Pep Boys is an auto parts store all over the southern CA where you can check prices for them.

It's true, Hertz from LA can't guarantee that you will have all weather tires or 4WD to drive to Tahoe, the way the Reno airport has those (ta && ta.queueForLoad ta.queueForLoad : function(f, g){document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', f);})(function(){ta.trackEventOnPage('postLinkInline', 'impression', 'postLinks-29469515', '');}, 'log_autolink_impression');cars on hand. They know people will be driving in the mountains. It was my understanding that Hertz prohibited chains on their rentals.

You may luck out and not need chains or the 4 WD, but you really should plan for this. In Yosemite if they have chain controls and you have a 4WD with snow tires, you still must be carrying chains. I have never been asked to show them, but I got turned around one time when I confessed I was not carrying chains. When driving in chain controls outside of Yosemite, they just wave me through when they see I have 4 WD and snow tires.

I know there are places where you can purchase snow chains, and if you do not use them they can be returned for a full refund. Pep Boys WalMart If you wait until you get to near where the chain controls are located, you can buy chains, but at a huge premium price, and no return type policys. Also, they may not have the correct ones for your tires, and then you are really stuck.

Conditions there may require tire chains, and be aware that residents of the area need to use the roads too, so it helps to be courteous. One spot to try is Mount Pinos in the Los Padres National Forest.

Oregon's chain law applies to all highways throughout the state. When you drive in winter conditions, you may see signs telling you to carry chains or traction tires and when you are required to use them. In some areas, lighted message signs also will advise you about chaining up. Traction tires may be used in place of chains on vehicles rated at 10,000 pounds gross vehicle weight or less and that are not towing or being towed.

\"Chains\" include link chains, cable chains, or any other device that attaches to the wheel, vehicle or outside of the tire that is specifically designed to increase traction on ice and snow conditions. For information on the placement of chains go to Minimum Chain Requirements.

In typical winter conditions, the following vehicles are completely or partially exempt from the chain law. However, in very bad winter road conditions all vehicles may be required to use chains regardless of the type of vehicle or type of tire being used (this is known as a conditional road closure). A conditional road closure may occur on any of Oregon's highways and are frequent in the winter on Interstate 5 through the Siskiyou Pass south of Ashland:

Drivers who disobey the signs requiring chains or traction tires to be carried are subject to a class C traffic violation. Not using chains or traction tires when signs require them could result in a specific fine traffic violation with a penalty of $880. 59ce067264
