Most likely it is from the DOT laying down the chemical that they use to pre-treat the highways when there is a chance of freezing precipiation. Bingo! You are probably noticing them mostly on bridges and places that have a tendency to freeze! From what I've read this stuff is water/precip. activated.

I do notice in places where there would be more likely for freezing conditions.. Geez more chemicals for us to deal with.. I haven't seen a truck yet putting it down.

They probably do it late at night. Have you seen the DOT plow trucks with the whitish tank on the back? I think that's the stuff.
