Colorado’s I-70 chain law isn’t just a regulation—it’s a safety measure born from years of weather-related accidents. During snowstorms, truckers without chains often lose control, blocking traffic for hours. To prevent this, the law mandates that commercial trucks must install tire chains when directed. CDOT enforces this strictly, especially on steep grades like Vail Pass and Eisenhower Tunnel. Violators face severe fines, towing, and points against their safety record. Truckers who prepare ahead—by equipping quality chains and checking forecasted chain law alerts—protect both their livelihood and the flow of interstate commerce through the Rockies.
