This driveway in Blair, Nebraska was buckled up about 2 1/2" where it met the garage floor.  There was evidence that appeared to be from street creep, but the street was asphalt...not concrete which left me mistified as to if this could really be the cause.  There was minor movement in the foundation wall also which can be from street creep. 

It's not too often that you see a driveway buckled up this high.  It's fun trying to figure out the cause even though it's not in our job description.  If any of you out there can shed additional light on this, I'd be interested to hear your suggestions as to possible causes.
