Penndot uses salt where you live?

Our roads here in the northern tier looked like they hadn’t been touched at all on Christmas Day, but it hadn’t snowed since Friday.

Yes regular rock salt in areas of Chester and Montgomery counties.

I'd rather get sand in all honesty.. I'm in the SE corner of berks.. Holy hell. It looks like snow on the road. Still. So much damn rock salt that you legitimately cannot see any lines on the road, on some/most roads

We can’t see the lines on the road either, because they were covered in 6 inches of snow that got compacted down to a sheet of ice and maybe given a sprinkle of sand at some point.

And if banks just left piles of money everywhere, you'd get your fuckin' scoop too, pal.

Why are you so purposefully obtuse?

Nobody is talking about breaking into PennDOT to steal shit, so comparing it to breaking into a bank is disingenuous on its face.

Sounds like you're upset Scranton is two and a half hours from the free salt in Chester County.

You found me out. I was gonna fill my Tacoma with stolen road salt and sell it at a massive profit in Buffalo.

I don't think OP meant legit piles, as in multiple feet tall.

They're referring to how some salt piles up under the salt dispenser when they idle the trucks in a parking spot. Think maybe six inches high at most.
