NINE bridges in Italy have collapsed in five years.

10 in the US since 2013.

I-5 at the Skatit River in Washington State

Highway in Scott City, MO

Overpass over I-75 in Ohio

Pennsy Bridge, Pennsylvania

I-10 Southern California

Bob White Bridge, VA

Pfeiffer Canyon Bride, California

I-85 Atlanta

Florida International Bridge

Of course, a couple of those were during demolition operations when they came down a lot faster than planned.

A bit of scale difference as well. Italy looks to be not much bigger than Florida:
