I do think the bridge could have easily collapsed had the damage occurred a little different. I trust the engineers on this one.

Can you imagine going over the side of that bridge on a rope 150' above the water? Or how about being one of the drivers on the bridge when it was struck and feeling the bridge swaying from the impact not knowing if it was about to collapse?
