Road surface cracks on winter because, water in the ground forms ice during winter, expanding to form cracks.
Why do people put salt and sand on the road what do they do individually?
The salt will melt the snow and ice, but can really damage the roads. The Sand creates more traction and will not cause damage to the roads.
The danger of reduced traction is greatest?
The danger of reduced traction is greatest when it first starts raining. This is because there is oil on the road and the rain turns the oil spots into slippery areas. Wet road surfaces due to rain and snow can cause reduced traction as can sleet.
The road surface of a bridge maybe dangerous in winter because it may remain icy after the rest of the roadway is clear?

Why are streets and highways damaged so much more in winter months than in the summer?
This is due to the cold weather that is typically experienced in the winter months. Water gets into small cracks in the road. When water freezes, it expands, causing the crack to widen. More water fills the new crack, freezes and widens it further. This cycle of freezing/melting/filling is what causes the damage to the roads.

Are there specific tires for winter?
