My family used to drive across the Silver Bridge all the time when we went on vacation to W. Va back in the 60’s. My sister gets freaked out about driving across bridges to this day.
There were a few in WV that used to bother me before they tore them down. I’d take off my seat belt and drive like a bat out of hell across them. Reason I’d take my seat belt off is in case it did collapse I could exit the car in the water. They have replaced those bridges since.
