Drivers must equip their vehicles in accordance with the regulations by March 15. Fines are also provided for failure to comply with the rules.

The fine for a legal or natural person of a tradesman who allows a vehicle that does not have the prescribed winter equipment to be used on the roads amounts to 660 to 1,990 euros
The Traffic Safety Act (ZOBS) stipulates that a fine of 500 to 1,000 euros or a prison sentence of up to 60 days will be imposed on a driver who, during winter conditions, participates in traffic with a vehicle of category M and N (for the transport of passengers and cargo) that does not have winter tires on all wheels, or does not meet other requirements regarding winter equipment prescribed by the ZOBS
This morning, the roads in the higher mountain areas are covered with snow or there is ice, which is why winter equipment is mandatory, especially on the road routes Mrkonjić Grad-Milinište-Glamoč, Trnovo-Foča via Rogoj, Han Pijesak-Vlasenica via Han Pogled and Pale-Jahorin.
