As much as we try to forget it, the fact of the matter is that snow and ice are on the horizon. For Louisville and surrounding counties, this winter has been estimated to have heavy snowfall and colder than normal temperatures. While you're out and about enjoying the beautiful fall weather, it's hard to ignore what might be in store for us in just a couple short months.

If you're from Louisville, you know that just a small amount of snow can cause major problems on the roadways and make driving hazardous for anyone, but especially those who don't have the luxury of staying home and waiting it out. Spotting trucks, emergency vehicles, ambulances, road crews, and sometimes even school buses have to be accessible when duty calls. That's why Louisville Switching wanted to take a minute to remind you about Insta-Chain Automatic Ice Chains. We've talked a lot about this product before and have successfully installed ice chains on a number of work vehicles to improve traction on snow or icy roads.

Insta-Chain is a family owned business based Springville, Utah. The Insta-Chain product is designed and made in the Rocky Mountains, so they know snow! The company was started with the premise to create the best automatic chain product in the world. Insta-Chain can be automatically activated from the cab of your truck while the vehicle is in motion by just the flip of a switch, and can improve traction when hazardous ice and snow threaten your safety on the road.

Insta-Chain has put together a great video that shows just how the ice chains work, how they are activated, and how they can improve traction when driving on snowy or icy roads. In the video, you'll see the ice chains installed on a number of different vehicles including semi trucks, school buses, roadway maintenance trucks, and more.
