Highways chiefs have said they will try out sticky rock salt as part of their work to keep roads in Cumbria open during the winter.

The trial will involve adding molasses to the salt which should make it stick to roads for longer and cut the number of times they need to be treated.

Do they not realise that it will stick to tyres, footwear, everything :?

You couldn`t make it up could you? :? :? :?
 
Well there's going to be a lot more roadkill out there as the wildlife will be eating the bloody stuff:confused:
