Chain Possession Laws?

It won't matter a long as you keep a set of chains on your truck.

 

I hang a small sign that says "For Display Only" I don't use them, If it is not safe to go under, over, or on top of then I will wait! I try to to get into it where I have to apply them to get out of it!. just my 2 cents worth.

 

I agree.

But the question was about "Chain Possession Laws" not when or whether to use them.
My response was simply to always carry a full set of chains, because then you are covered no matter any state's requirements.

 

Yes there are other laws. Just carry a full set and you will be fine everywhere.

All 19 wheels, can't leave out the spare!

Or the 5th and the Steering wheel!

 

Also carry a set of snow shoes and cross country skis to go with the fifth wheel and steering wheel chains.

 

You should probably only drive in the day time to,because it might be to "unsafe" for you to drive at night ..

 

If you carry 6 singles and 1 pair of doubles you will have the laws covered. CO requires chains on the 4 drive axles, NV requires 1 Drive axle and 1 trailer axle, CA may require up to a set of doubles on the front drives, singles on the rear drives and singles on trailer axles. AZ, ID, MT, UT, WA, NM, OR and PA also have chain laws but no specific requirements.

 

One other thing. You can count out sitting it out in Colorado now. You get 24-hours on a piece of state property before you get the boot, and an expensive piece of state-issued paper. Might actually have to throw iron, and use 'em now.
