I hadn’t heard of this. The article is longer than I care to read. Skimming, seems like this was done to hurt a dem mayor. I didn’t look long, but I did fix a spelling error. Anything worth knowing that I missed?
Christie wanted endorsements from Democratic mayor’s to help his reelection campaign. Some refused. To teach one of them a lesson, he shut down several entryways to the George Washington Bridge - which is the world’s busiest motor vehicle bridge, averaging well over a quarter million vehicles every day - and redirected the traffic through the mayor’s town. It caused a massive traffic jam and a lady died.
I did double-check with Google before I posted, and that’s what all the results said. I tried to check again right now (“busiest bridge in China”, “Chinese bridge with most traffic”, etc), but those results are all things like China’s longest or tallest bridges, with no notes on how much traffic they carry. So I’m going with the GWB, at least until I can find data they says otherwise.
Nobody does spite like New Jersey. Remember Bridgegate?

Wait, is that really the busiest? I would expect that to be in China.
