Only when I lived in California. I was always scared there would be an earthquake right as I was driving over it.

Oh no. I hate going over water too. I have a fear that some idiot will run me off the bridge, then I'll be trapped because my power windows won't go
down in the water. I always try to stay in the left hand lane away from the water. I figure if they run me in a pole that would be better. I'd at least
have a chance.

The Coronado Bridge in San Diego isn't that bad

The ones in the first picture I would be okay with, but in general bridges are my biggest fear. I blame the Loma Prieta earthquake that hit when I was five
years old and broke part of the upper deck of the Bay Bridge.
Once, I accidentally ended up on a bridge (Damn TomTom) and I was completely freaking out. I felt like I couldn't catch my breath and I was probably driving 50. I would like to apologize now to anyone else who may have been on the bridge at that time.

There is this one near Bridge City, Texas. I've only been over it a couple of times, but I don't like it at all. According to Wikipedia, it's called the Rainbow Bridge. I never knew that.

Nah I don't think I could the SD bridge either, and what if there was a accident in the city or on the bridge and you are stuck there for hours, I would
NOT be able to handle being on the bridge for hours

How does that even stay strong?! I'm genuinely interested in how they keep the tension in that bridge?!

There's a lot of "gorge" bridges.
