IMO, if the sign is a generic one like this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snow_tire#/media/File:CZ-C15a_Zimn%C3%AD_v%C3%BDbava.png then map generically "winter equipment", but if it is more specific, like this https://www.sicurauto.it/upload/news_/8684/img/2038-cartelli-sperimentali-pneumatici-invernali.png then definitely we should map what it says, i.e., either M+S tyres or snow chains mandatory between day X and day Y. In Italy, for example, the latter kind is way more common, and is very specific and doesn't require any knowledge of the local law - which (off topic) should be a requirement of any road sign anywhere: how am I supposed to know what the hell the first sign means exactly? > (E.g. in Germany, you will generally have to use winter tyres (at the > moment still also M+S, but AFAIK they are currently changing this) > Would you care to expand on this? What we commonly call "winter tyres" are actually M+S (mud and snow) models. Regards, Simone
