Wow, SF East Bay Bridge (Oakland side) collapse.

A 170-foot stretch of the interchange warped and collapsed after a gasoline tanker truck crashed and exploded into flames early Sunday, leaving the truck driver of the truck with moderate burns.

Many commuters on Bay Area Rapid Transit trains this morning were looking at the San Francisco Chronicle, whose front page devoted about a third of its space to a picture of the fiery collapse and a succinct headline: Maze Meltdown.

Riders on a train headed west into San Francisco from the East Bay said they did not notice many more passengers than usual but trains headed east were more crowded than usual, according to passengers. BART trains were free today to help alleviate highway traffic congestion.

Wow, I crossed that bridge once, and it was crazy traffic even at night. Can't imagine what it's gonna be like.

Oh, and if this is a repost, either the search sucks or the previous poster didn't put BRIDGE in the title.
