Although the metropolis has received more than 20 inches of snow, in the beginning of the week, and a cold siberian is installed since Thursday, it was still possible until Friday to ride with summer tires.

In fact, the December 15, is the deadline to fit his vehicle with winter tires that ensure a better grip to the roads icy, snow-covered and frozen.

After that, motorists who have not completed their change of tires will run on Quebec’s roads illegally and will be subject to receive a citation ranging from $ 200 to $300.

Recall that the government amended the act in view of the next year, while the deadline has been moved up to December 1.

The more adventurous will be able to again put their summer tires on 15 march, the date from which motorists will be able to ride legally.
