[AT] OT - Crushed asphalt over old asphalt?

[Mike M]

I will relate this to tractors because my current driveway is so rutted 
it makes it hard to plow with my tractor ;) I have an older (15yrs) 
asphalt driveway that it failing fast. After getting a bid for a new 
driveway, that is not an option, it's around 375' long and to tear out 
and replace would have been around 16k. I can get crushed asphalt for 
5.50 a ton and 6 bucks a ton to truck it.

I've used crushed asphalt over other gravel drives that I have, and have 
been very pleased with it both it terms of cost, compaction and no dust. 
Is there any reason I can't have a layer of crushed asphalt tailgated 
over my old drive without replacing it? Seems like it should worked 
especially once it gets packed down. Anyone have experience with this? 
Thanks in advance.

Mike M
