I hate that ****ing bridge. I have had a paranoid fear of those tall bridges since birth. I drove across that bastard when it happened. In my fear, I go as fast as I can to get off the damn thing. I passed the Trailways bus that went in on the approach to the raised section. I saw the damn Summit Venture and thought "hat looks ****ed up, what a weird place to be" and passed a number of other cars. The fog obscured what was behind me, and I didn't know what happened. I was sitting in a tire shop getting new tires when it came on the TV in the waiting room. A classmate was a diver who worked for the company that recovere the bodies, cars and other vehicles that went off the end. I recognized most of them as ones I had passed.

Wonder of this bridge accident will genrate as many golf club sales as the Tamp one did?
