I seen it on CNN and was like WTF? It had received a clean inspection last year. Wonder when the results will be in so the lawsuits can begin?

I've been at HCMC for the past few days. Crazy to see all the bloody people carried in. Happened not 4 blocks away from where I was, and 2 blocks away from the U of M. ----, I drove on that road 15 minutes before the collapse.

it did not receive a clean bill of health at all. 3 years ago it had an inspection that stated it was pretty much unsafe and required extensive repairs. 1 year ago the inspection indicated that the bridge had multiple stress fractures.

i should have been on that bridge yesterday after work as well (i got off of work at 6pm and would have been on the bridge about 6:15 when it came down). thank god for UPS having no clue where my package was
