Explanation: Most bridges are built using metal, which is a great heat conductor. Heat within the bridge will quickly rise to the surface and freeze when it meets the frigid air above and below the structure.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 84286538 United States 02/02/2023 09:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Lived in Big D back in the 80's. We had a big ice storm come through. We sat on the side of the road by a large overpass for about 45 minutes watching cars crash into the wall slide to the other end and disappear down a steep grass embankment. The first was a Beamer, he passed us on approach and looked like a pinball going through so we stopped just short of the overpass to see him just disapear at the end. When we left there was prolly 15-20 cars at the bottom in a big pile of smoldering ruin. |

So, DO NOT hit the gas, or the brake, or the steering wheel if possible. If the bridge is curved, go lightly on the steering wheel, but NEVER hit the brakes or the gas, unless you are certain of a collision, then, say one Hail Mary, and Three Our Fathers. |
