All tires pick up gravel and sand and salt, but it's not as if it just picks it up and never spits it back out. There are reasons that #1 lanes, usually the left lane, is sanded first on roads. More cars drive there, and then disperse the sand to the other lanes. I have never heard this argument about sand being picked up. It just doesn't make sense.
