Compulsory winter equipment
Special equipment for vehicles is no longer an option, but is now compulsory in winter. This applies to the whole Savoie region, and shall be in force between the 1st November and 31st March.
Light vehicles, utility vehicles and motorhomes must now:
- either be equipped with steel or fabric snow chains for at least two drive wheels;
- or be equipped with four winter tyres with the 3 PMSF (Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake) logo featuring the letters MS, M+S or M&S.
