Should asphalt driveways be resurfaced perodically with a sealant?

[Edit]

Answer

Yes, they should. Sealing the surface on a regular basis prevents water from seeping into the material and causing damage when it freezes. It also replaces some of the oils that evaporate, helping keep the material flexible and less likely to crack.
