How & Why of the I-35W Mississippi River Highway Bridge Collapse in Minnesota - Aug 1st, 2007. A story of industry-wide negligence, a decades long nationwide lack of understanding bridge nodes and an investigation & rescue that all stand as leading examples to this day.
*Correction: at 8min 45s I mistakenly referred to MnDOT as the "Minneapolis" Department of Transportation. It is of course, Minnesota.

The politicians are just responding to what the voters want: More roads and lower taxes. Maintenance is really freakin’ expensive, Americans don’t want to pay for it, and we can get away with not paying for it for a while. You don’t get re-elected by promising higher taxes and more road maintenance work.
