DAMN! I'm actually going to be paranoid driving over bridges from now on. I didn't drive on this one that often, but it's still rather freaky.

opebo:
While I have no reason to believe this particular disaster is attributable to poor maintainence, it is certainly true that infrastructure has been sorely neglected in the US for decades now.

Boris:
Pretty miraculous that there's only been one reported fatality so far. CNN said it occurred during rush-hour traffic.

Wikipedia and the Star Tribune link above says three but that's still pretty miraculous for an event of this size.
