The bridge collapse was just a reenactment of Lamar Jackson in the AFC championship game.

If you're going to make jokes about people dying just hours after the incident, at least try and make it somewhat funny.

I HATED driving over that bridge. I tried to avoid it every chance I had when driving from property to property unless no other option.
We have a lot of shitty bridges in this country. Piss poor infrastructure. East Coast and Midwest have a ton of steel garbage we all drive over daily.

It would be very difficult to restore everything in that short amount of time. I would assume they lost main propulsion as they would've lost all supporting auxiliaries . They would lose hydraulic steering as well. I believe that ship was just drifting. |

When the mpls bridge collapsed, the one thing it had going for it was the low water level. save a few people, and a bus. But the drop.....another oof. And who ever said it...yes, there are a lot of shitty bridges in this country. The term used in MPLS was 'functionally deficient'

Imagine being on that bridge in your vehicle and seeing it begin it's slow collapse and know you had no ability to get off. That's awful.
