What makes them scary other then the heights? They all look perfectly level/flat

I would much rather drive on those ever day then this

They all look fine to me and perfectly safe. Where's the scary part?

I've driven all over Costa Rica, Israel, Egypt and Turkey, and Mexico as well as the EU. No problems. Boston, however, sorta sucked LOL.

Does anyone here even give it a thought when they drive across a bridge ?

I'm scared of heights, so they would all suck for me! I'd have to focus on the car ahead of me and not look to the sides.

The scariest bridge that I ever drove on was the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel. Only once and hopefully, never ever again.

Scariest bridge I ever drove over [many times] was the old Skyway Bridge [I-275] over Tampa Bay. It was open grate and you could feel the bridge shake as you drove over it. Might be a reason why it feel down so easily when the ship hit it.
Re the Chesapeake- During a violent storm, a Navy ship took out a section. I think it was before the second roadway was constructed.

That is one heck of a bridge surrounded by water, water and water.
