If it actually works it looks good to me. Anything would have to be better than a road crew of 20 standing around watching 2-4 people fix the road.

Interesting. They used that here on the island a few years back to fix almost all the potholes in one day. Never seen them use it again, although it did the job beautifully, and some of those patches are still there.

missouri uses a similar step up here, instead of the high speed machine its poured in by hand. here we call it chip-n-seal.... honestly not worth the crap or the money MODOT pays there guys to poor it. Within a month or so it gets pulled right back out by traffic and the rain. not a good fix for medium/high traffic areas. would be great for an old county road.

Montreal, QC have similar machine to do the work. I think it is even much more advanced..the guy does not even need to come out of the trunk to do it..
