My heart goes out to all... it could happen to any of us who drive or ride

When my oldest brother took vacation from his Iraqi job, he was hired by the US Gov to inspect the bridges in the USA. I think, from what mom says, he didn't find any that were in good shape. This would have been done (inspections) the year of Katrina and right after I think. We expect our local (State) governments to keep our bridges safe for us, but someone --or maybe someoneS- are not doing their job.
