Every time there’s a big national disaster, the local press does their usual job of localizing — and scaring us. Just check out the highly scientific survey from NBC 10:
NBC 10 conducted a survey and asked, “How concerned are you about the safety of local bridges?”
Forty-five percent said, “very concerned,” 29 percent said “somewhat concerned” and 20 percent are “Not worried at all.”
Gee, I wonder who could make the public so concerned about bridge safety?
“It’s very scary. Don’t think I’m going over a bridge anytime soon,” Eileen Vitale, of Northeast Philadelphia, said. Everyone NBC 10 talked to said they would think twice before driving over a bridge that crosses either water or a city street.
Jean Unger, of Kensington, said she would cross her fingers and hold her breath until she got on the other side of a bridge.
Oh, right.
