 I've only ever seen this method used in the deep south, I don't think this stuff would survive a winter and a plow but wow! Great hustle!
First, let me say that I am very impressed with how much hustle those guys have as they’re spreading out the oil. Second, I live out in the boondocks and only nine families live on my road. No other traffic goes down my road; only the few families that live on it. About six years ago, the county busted up the old asphalt road, packed it down, and then used this method on top of that. The top layer of chip rock was only one rock deep; not even half an inch. Within weeks, the county was already back out there patching holes. Now, six years later, there are some parts of the road where none of the original asphalt remains. It’s all patchwork on top of patchwork.
 Those guys are great! A well oiled machine at work.  All it takes is skills and the right equipment. The 2 guys with the brooms have the worst part of the whole process. I live in Arkansas and I recently watched the ARDOT guys recovering Hwy 21 here. More guys standing and leaning on shovels and watching their watches than working.  I remember this being done every few years where I grew up in Minneapolis.  I also remember how the sealing rock got just about everywhere after a few weeks.  Had on neighbor who cleaned up the stuff that got into the gutter next o the curb and used it in his driveway, then poured driveway sealer over it. Worked really well.  The first part is exactly how they resurfaced the road outside where I live. We could all park our vehicles back on it the next day. It was a treat to watch.
