Faster degradation of cars on the road might be an upside for Detroit.

It does, but skidding off the road destroys them too.

And throwing sand down really doesn't do much.

Across the lake in Wisconsin we reuse the leftover brine from the cheese industry. Its more effective and more effective per unit used than straight salt.

Takes the freezing point down to 0°F or lower. Combine that with how dry it gets here in the winter and you get a powerful combination of melting and sublimation.

What is the alternative? Roads that become icy probably destroy cars as well, although in a more pinpoint kind of way. At least road salt doesn't cause a lot of fatalities.
