Studded tires need to be removed by end of March

Washington State law requires studded tires be removed by midnight Sunday, March 31st. Driving with studded tires after March 31st is a traffic infraction and could result in a $124 ticket.

The Washington law applies to all drivers in the state, even visitors. No personal exemptions or waivers are issued.

Drivers are advised to schedule with tire removal businesses early as they get crowded as the deadline approaches.
