  1. At Darien EMS we have on spots on all 3 ambulances and we have a set of real tire chains for each also, we put the chains on at around 3-4 inches of snow. The chains work really well for us but we get a lot of use out of our on spots also after the storm when it is still pretty bad in the outer parts of town when we don't want to have to deal with the restrictions placed on the ambulance during transport with tire chains on. The rumble and bumping of the chains can be a hinderance to patient care.
