Part of bridge in Washington State collapses,
dumping vehicles and people into water.

A highway bridge over a river in Washington State has collapsed, dumping vehicles and people into the water, the Associated Press news agency reported quoting police.

Trooper Mark Francis said on Friday the four-lane bridge collapsed about halfway between Seattle and Vancouver, British Columbia. Francis said he had no idea how many people were in the water or whether there were any injuries or deaths.

A Skagit Valley Herald reporter at the scene said a sheriff's office rescue boat had arrived and rescue crews were looking for people in the water. The newspaper reporter saw one person sitting atop one vehicle in the water

If this were to be in Nigeria, a lot of dunces will be asking for the head of the President - especially if America has a DollarLand forum.

Again, I'm sure Jonathan will set up a committee to look into the reasons for the collapse, the committee to report back in two weeks! After that, nothing will be heard again abt it!!!

What happened to the strength of materials, tensile strengths and bulk modulus calculations by the experts?

How many times do you hear of a bridge collapsing in America? It's rare in that part of the world but here bridges collapse like pure water. If they even tell you how old that bridge is, you will marvel.
