The United States Current Bridge Troubles
The United States is home to thousands of bridges. These bridges are a necessary form of transportation across the many bodies of water. Without them, people would not have the ability to commute across oceans and lakes. While we assume and hope that all of these bridges are safe for commute, a large percentage of them are not. Until recently, bridges were not even required to be inspected regularly. After a few large scale bridge accidents, regulations have improved.
