OLYMPIA — The deadline for removing studded tires is Thursday.
Studded tires must be removed from vehicles by the last day of this month, the state Department of Transportation said.
Drivers with studded tries after that date could be cited with a $124 ticket.
Studs can wear down pavement, so removing them promptly helps extend the lifetime of state roadways, Transportation said.
Transportation officials do not plan to extend the studded tire deadline this year, but crews will continue to monitor roads, passes and forecasts and work to clear late-season snow or ice.
Washington and Oregon share the same studded tire removal date.
The Washington law applies to all drivers in the state, even visitors.
No personal exemptions or waivers are issued.
