Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore...

Well you don’t know what the problem will be before it happens- you have safety features in for what is possible not probable
Right?
I don't think that's how it works. At least I don't think a bridge falling down was part of the calculus in judging the need for one. That said, if it's required, there obviously should be one on site. No one knows who knew what yet. I'm sure that will come out when the investigation is completed and made public.
