I agree w/ the choice of Seven-Mile Bridge as #1. I don’t like it one bit. My palms sweat.

The problem is there is no divider between traffic, it's remote, some people are drunk, and they are in a hurry on Sunday evening. Other than that it's quite beautiful in spots.

The people crossing it on foot can definitely feel it bouncing.

I get disconcerted a bit when stopped in traffic on a bridge. The just roll with it. It's fun to think about the forces involved and directions they are moving.

“...found none that I wouldn’t cross...”

Even that one in Pakistan that looks like it’s made out of dinosaur teeth or something?
