Doesn't take much for DOTs to go apeshit with road salt.

In PA if you walk out of a convenience store and drop your ICEE on the ground, PennDOT will send out a truck to salt the parking lot just to be safe. Use that salt up or lose it next year.

I wish I was still living out your way again this morning. We had 2" on the grass, 6" on everything metal. It sucked cleaning the truck off at 5:30 this morning. Atleast the roads were clear going to Johnstown.

I had to brush the car off the this morning too, it wasn't any 6" though. I thought I had put the snow brush away for good, I was pissed. Lol
 
I was in really snowy Montana this winter and was surprised how relatively not rusty all the winter beaters are up there. I dont think they use salt much. The cars in PA are so much worse.

Down here in Nc they seemed to dump a ridiculous unnecessary amount of roadsalt this last little 2 inch snow we had. Im guessing to get rid of their supply of salt they didnt use.

Given we have minimal snow and salt I keep cringing seeing nice classic cars out and about even though it hasnt been washed off yet. I think people here dont pay much attention to salt because its not a big factor and just say hey nice day let me take my ss nova out.

Salt is worse in warm temps as it becomes more reactive. It is a big tease when its warm and sunny out but the roads are still coated in salt. PA and other Mid-Alantic cars are likely worse than MO cars because of the warmer temps.
 
Just read accuweather and they said by end of next week we should be seeing normal temps. If not I'm moving to Arizona.
