Sounds like he felt he should have been exempt from the chain laws.EXEMPT should be completely erased no matter what you do and who you are.

Splitting hairs, but for most 5 axle trucks you are only required to carry 7 chains. Outers on each drive axle, 1 drag on the trailer, and 2 spares:

With tag-axle & super singles, I only need to carry 5 (1 for each drive tire, 1 for the trailer, and 2 spares) -
How many points went on your csa record for this tire chain citation?

John Bertucci Thanks this. -
Might get points on your license depending on state, but as it's not a moving violation I would be very surprised if that's the case.
