    A tractor-trailer's floating in the Chesapeake Bay right now after a three-car accident at 4 this morning.

    This is one of the heaviest-traveled bridges in Maryland - the only way to traverse the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland.

    That bridge scares the shit out of me. I'm surprised this doesn't happen regularly.

    Oh shit. I have a friend who is petrified of bridges and one time we drove over that thing, with me driving and him in the passenger seat and I thought he was going to have a heart attack. When he reads that, I am going to get a major, "See!!!!!!????" from him.

    Last summer, we went on that bridge the day after the bridge collapse in Minnesota. It definitely was on our minds!

    I love driving on that bridge myself. You get a beautiful view and it takes you to some of the nicest places you can find. If I'm going in the same direction as that bridge I'm about as happy as I can be.

    Second that. I didn't mind cruising over that bridge, because it's an awesome view.
