It is probably time to do some letter writing or emailing to public officials if you haven't already done so. I have such a bridge phobia.....especially if it is a bridge with no devider of any kind. They should put New Jersey Barriers down the center of that bridge and post a lower speed limit and enforce it. When we are there, I have to cross that bridge twice every other day to visit my family in DeFuniak.....just thinking about it makes my blood boil
The incredible thing, to me, is that there is legal passing zone on that bridge! If NOTHING else, maybe we can get the DOT to nix the passing zone and put up "No Passing" signs.
I don't know what idiot though a passing zone on a causeway/bridge was a good idea in the first place.

very good idea. okay, where is Peaboy when we need him? he knows how to get a good campaign off the ground... (he got us those traffic lights on 98 at 395 and 383, after screaming and stomping for well over a year at everyone from the county to DOT to the Gov... and he did not stop until it was done.... amazing. no one claims responsibility or ownership of these problems).
Jeez, glad you're okay. People really drive crazily south of I-10. Today on 331 between Highway 20 and the bridge, vehicles were passing a moving vehicle at high speed on the RIGHT side because there was too much oncoming traffic to pass on the left. That's just insane and scary!Last night, I picked up Mr. K at the airport. We decided to go to Nick's on the Bay for dinner, which meant taking Hwy. 20 towards 331. Had a nice dinner and then headed east for home. I was a Nervous Nellie driving that road in the dark and kept commenting on my fear of someone drifting into my lane. Got on the bridge, hugging the stripe on the right, when all of a sudden a pickup truck decided to PASS a car ON the bridge and all I saw were headlights coming right at us! I slowed and got on the shoulder as best I could. Mr. Pickup Driver, you are a perfect example of an idiot behind the wheel. I know so many of you must travel this bridge and road...please be careful.
You know, the same thing has happened to me. I've also had big pick up truck drivers get right up on my boot
Ok I have not heard boot in a long time where are you from Rupenzel?
