This episode of driving under a collapsed bridge is brought to you by the same folks that thought it was safe to drive on in the first place

Reminds me of their high speed rail collision.
https://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/27/world/asia/27china.htmlThe government’s only explanation for Saturday’s accident has been that a lightning strike disabled equipment, allowing a train carrying about 550 passengers to strike the rear of another train with more than 1,000 riders on a viaduct near the city of Wenzhou in Zhejiang Province. Eight cars derailed, with four hurtling off a bridge.
Immediately after the accident the government dismissed three more railway officials without explanation, and announced a thorough investigation into its cause. But a news conference scheduled for Tuesday was postponed.
Several rail experts have said they doubt that lightning was the sole cause of the crash. They questioned why safety mechanisms failed to warn or slow the second train.
