From the “You can’t make this up” section, we recently were alerted to a story that we thought was very interesting and near and dear to our hearts. As Tesla continues to work on their autopilot vehicles (i’m already dreaming of the day this happens), the video in the attached story below shows something most people probably would never think of, but makes perfect sense. Oil stains or some other type of hydrocarbons were leaked in two lines along a road. In the sun, they look just like traffic lane markers. The auto pilot car makes the decision to change lanes due to these new lane marking lines.

Most likely a hose break happened and was trailed down the lane. The perfect reason to use our BIO-DRY Asphalt Special Blend Cleaner to clean the stains from asphalt to avoid this same problem in the future.
