Yup, ice destroys our roads, but only because they're made like crap. Germay has probably more ice and snow than us, and you don't see their roads getting torn apart. I know from my Euro delivery and driving all over Germany. The reason is that in Germany, the pavement is poured about a foot thick. This is too thick for water to penetrate and that keeps the roads from being torn apart. But here in the good ol USA. roads are not even 6" thick..The result is potholes galore and more patches than my old pair of wrangler jeans.
