Salt; Dangerous as HELL
RichA 4 February 2005 03:24:52
	I took my Mach-1 out the other day. The roads were dry, no apparent contamination. I'm going along at a fair clip and shift from 3-4 WITH traction control engaged and my rear wheels break loose big time! Salt isn't just a corrosive that destroys cars, it's a dangerous substance when dry because it acts like graphite. I wonder if anyone has ever done any investigations into the liability of dry salt when it comes to accidents. Traction is radically lower when it's on the road, even in a thin, thin, layer. -Rich

	Lessee... when you're up on two wheels, a guy tends to take it real easy until AFTER the springs first real good rainstorm. S'funny... after the snow is gone, there's usually an abundance of sand and salt left behind... happens every year. Just like the first good snow of the year, it doesn't "cause" accidents..... it just separates the wienies from thinking folk...

	Hey Rich, Thanks for the heads up. Having never lived in a place where they sal the roads before - I DIDN'T KNOW THIS!!

	Don't forget about the salt haze either. Take one heavily salted road, the more/faster traffic the better. Add a nice frigid sunny day so that the road is dry. Stir in calm winds. Thus observe the salty haze thats in the air over that highway. Particularly viewable if the sun is low and aimed down the highway. I've always thought (but I have no proof) that those suspended salt particles infiltrate the interior spaces of your vehicles body over time, particularly areas that don't see the standard road salt/slush/water exposure. Any body shop techs out there who might know? Do any cars live that long here (Minnesota) to witness such an effect.
