my older "Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations" pocketbook states
(Sec. 393.71 h (10) (ii)
"If chains or cables are used as the safety device, they shall be crossed
and attached to the vehicles near the points of bumper attachments to the
chassis of the vehicles. The length of the chain used shall be no more than
necessary to permit free turning of the vehicles."
I believe Federal Motor Carrier Regulations are on the Internet but I
didn't check to see if this requirement has changed.
