This is chilling.

 

How many of us cross interstate bridges either on the way to work or play?

 

Glad no one was killed. The three people were very lucky.

 

Do we have the money to replace or repair all of the interstate bridges?  Don't get me started on the Federal government's priorities.

Ya, scary thing. All the local TV channels broke in and covered it for 4-5 hrs last night. But it was good to see so many private boaters appear on the scene in an instant.  Even the Dept. of Fish & Wildlife got their boat in on the action.  Rescue went flawlessly.  The only injury was to a bystander who fell off the dike and broke her arm.

 

Over-height truck hit one of the overhead beams, thus bringing it down.  However, they're saying a car cut in front of him, which made him swerve over to the side where the beams are lower.

 

This is the only major artery into Canada for hundreds of miles.  It's a major, major blow to trucking, travelers, and transportation.
