They're expecting many more bodies, trying to figure out how to get to the cars below.

Based on what they know right now, there is no indication or wasn't any that the bridge
needed to be replaced immediately.

They are going to investigate that and there are many questions to be asked and answered.

They're using sonar to locate cars... talking about money needed to replace infrastructure,
the legislature's role and actions needed, funding, etc.

Bob McFarland is at the mic now.... giving condolences etc.

News Conference is being held by the Minnesota Dept. of Transportation.

They're going to reveal how they do inspections etc. Specifics.

More people are going to speak....

there are 80,000 bridges in the USA that carry the same rating. :scared:

Now some guy giving facts about the bridges history.

He's now talking about "THE WELDS"...

Hmmm the same topic in Boston after the tunnel collapes!

I wonder if that bridge was contructed by the same company? :shrug: (subsidiary of Halliburton?)
