This is not an interstate highway crossing this is the crossing between Niagara Falls, Canada and Niagara Falls, New York this is the US side the border “checkpoint” where border agents check your papers to enter the USA.

Just a few blocks from Mohegan Sun Casino.

Well, if I understand the situation, the car was traveling the wrong way from the U.S to Canada. They weren't looking to cross. They were looking to explode on the bridge. You just can't drive in the wrong lane while crossing a border and expect to get very far.

This might have been a premature explosion. If the intent was to do maximum damage then going by current reports the only two dead are the people in the car that went boom.
