It's not that, it's the freight trucks. We have a much higher weight limit than other states, and it tears up our roads. States around us spend about 3 times as much on roads as we do.

It's partially the freight trucks, but even without them there's a reason why the states around us spend 3x as us on their roads. Agree that freight trucks don't help, but the real gap is spending.

Brining the roads in bulk during the winter also doesn't help.
