Bridge Collapse in China! How many of US Bridges Are on the Same way?

I THINK that is a transformer they were hauling. Have seen one or two trailers in the USA like that hauling transformers. Super heavy.

Could have been 300,000+ lbs. We've loaded gas turbine parts in a box the size of mobile home onto trucks that size.

Brandon is gonna fix all the bridges, roads, dams and buildings and it won’t cost a penny. It’s all paid for. Buttgig is gonna be in charge of it all under Harris supervision.

Understand but the tranformers I was referring to may weigh up to 820,000 lbs. Some of the smallest are about about 110 tons to 185 tons.

I think the big ass-truck, with a HUGE load caused the collapsing...

Everytime I drive over the spaghetti junction on I-85, I have that feeling "What if this goes down and I am up here??"
