Open publisher page 5 citations

Abstract

ALTHOUGH STUDDED TIRES ARE NOW ILLEGAL FOR MINNESOTA RESIDENTS, EXCEPT FOR NONRESIDENTS WHO ARE GIVEN 30 DAYS TO DRIVE WITH STUDDED TIRES; THEY WERE LEGAL FOR 6 WINTERS FROM 1965 TO 1971. THIS IS A REPORT ON A NUMBER OF SUDIES THAT HAD NOT BEEN COMPLETED BY JANUARY 1971; HOW HIGHWAY SURFACE WEAR CONTINUED TO PROGRESS THROUGH THE WINTER OF 1970-71 IS SHOWN. THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF USING STUDDED TIRES ARE REVIEWED IN TERMS OF PAVEMENT WEAR AND TRAFFIC SAFETY.
