Those divots are annoying and they absolutely do result in some shortening of pavement life, especially in the northern states. On Highway 30 in Oregon, between St .Helens and Astoria, the fog lines appear to be a machine formed paint with high frequency shallow grooves. It is unmistakable when you wander onto them.
My chihuahua cross dog is hilarious with road bumps. She sits up on the console, and if I hit a turtle or anything like that her radar ears perk up and point right down at the floor, and then she jumps down by my wife's feet to go check it out. EVery time!
