As commercial truck drivers, navigating through unpredictable weather conditions is part of our job. From icy roads to heavy snowfall, these challenges not only affect our schedules but also pose significant safety risks on the road. That's where Onspot automatic tire chains come in, revolutionizing the way we handle traction and safety during winter or inclement weather. Here's why every commercial truck driver should consider investing in Onspot automatic tire chains.
My travels out West take me to a vast number of places where I meet many people along the way. Some are Onspot customers and others are not. It makes no difference to me as I value the people and conversations, good, bad, indifferent. Occasionally, I meet someone who runs the auto chains and has a unique story to tell not just about our product, but in general. Doug Stairs is one of these people.
As the West Coast Regional for Onspot I manage a large territory from Colorado - West to Alaksa. So, like many over the road drivers I spent the majority of my time on the road traveling to visit customers and dealers. Quite often during my travels I receive calls from drivers either interested in auto chains or who already currently own Onspots. What follows are some frequently asked questions and concerns from drivers. My hope is that these will provide you with a better understanding of the Onspot automatic tire chain system and whether or not it is right for you.
