	Road hockey puck - Patent 4078801
		It is easy to see that a traditional ice hockey puck, if used for road hockey, may make the game too rough to be played by people wearing no more physical protection than street clothes, except those keen enough to avoid or tolerate injury.
		The game of road hockey bears a similar relation to ice hockey as soft ball bears to hard ball.
		Many who play road hockey also play ice hockey and most at least follow the latter sport.

	Hockey Trade Rumors - Road hockey opponents missing the point
		A better point is raised by Terry Groves, who said that the great hockey players got great by practising, and since winter is getting warmer, there is less ice for ice hockey, so road hockey is a necessity.
		Even so, road hockey is rarely ever played on main roads where all the traffic is located (if at all), and all the housing neighbourhoods it is played on people usually don't drive on anyway unless they're getting out of their driveway.
		This is where road hockey fits in: as one of the last bastions of Canadian culture, it should be kept and nurtured because it is so dear to Canada and is one of the last definitive Canadian cultural item, not "kicked to the curb" for utillitarin purposes.

		When a whale is killed, even after that whale is dragged upon the ice, it must be given proper respect.

	Winter
		No guarantee can be given that roads will always be completely clear of ice or snow and it takes time for salt to become effective after roads are salted.
		We salt key routes when there is a risk of ice by providing 24-hour cover to respond to weather conditions, using a fleet of specialist vehicles.
		With such a large road network, it would be unrealistic and uneconomical to attempt to treat all roads.

	NewBerlin.Org - Why Salt the Roads
		This is why it is so important to get salt down early in the storm when it will be most effective in melting ice and snow and preventing bonding to the pavement that could result in hard packing on roads for long periods.
		Salt has been used on streets and roads across the snow belt for years because of its ability to melt ice and snow.
		Salt should be used judiciously to make streets and highways safer for motorists while insuring that the environment is not harmed.

	Salting Roads
		We salt the roads to prevent ice and snow from sticking to road surface.
		At particularly heavy salting times, cars become encrusted in salt, and drivers desperately peer out from streaked windshields, hoping that their windshield wiper fluid will hold out, because if it doesn't, a drying windshield can quickly become obstructed with salty road splatter.
		This explains why a road surface or bridge can remain slushy or unfrozen at freezing air temperatures (assuming the road surface is not warmer that the air).

	The Chronicle, West Elgin, West Lorne, ON
		Road crews continue to salt and sand on the roads during ice conditions or snow falls, but the salt brine prevents black ice, he said.
		Paul Van Vaerenbergh, road superintendent, said the device was made in-house and will cut down on overtime costs incurred when road crews salt roads before regular work hours.
		On dry days, the roads crew will be using the new equipment to spray salt brine on paved roads.
