sounds like the bridge needs emergency lanes on the side...or something...some sort of extended shoulder. I have seen bridges in California that have this to prevent these sort of accidents.

There is definately something weird about how you can kill someone with your car, but if it's deemed an accident it's OK, you don't even have to stop driving or anything.

So, if it was designed to last 50 years, will it just collapse like a macintosh or pc after their 1 year warrenty passes?
