Levin played about 15 minutes of audio from police when this happened. Sounds like they had stopped traffic at both ends of the bridge a few minutes before the collapse. Probably saved a lot of lives by doing so. The bridge is 1.6 miles long and there were some still left on the bridge plus a road work crew of 13.

It could have been worse as the bridge could have collapsed during rush hour.
