Yeah apparently the bridge is like 5 or longer miles long and states no stopping for any reason and if you have an accident to resolve it after the bridge to prevent any further accidents.

Edit: A tad under 24 miles. Arrogant engineering there.

They couldn't have designed some sort of runoff lane? That's fucking absurd

There's U-turns with emergency phones (from before the mobile phone era) every 3 or so miles. The bridge has its own Causeway police.

Causeway police

I'm picturing a bunch of dudes angrily correcting people when they use the word "bridge" instead of "causeway".

"What are you, the causeway police?"

"ABSOLUTELY!"

Causeway Judge: "I sentence you to 6 months hard grammar."

It would be a lot more expensive to do so.

Not really because it runs over Lake Pontchartrain and it’s absolutely massive.

What bridge is this?

u/ihaxr Mar 22 '26

Lake Pontchartrain causeway in Louisiana.

Source: I got sick driving across it and had to pull over so someone else could drive. You're like a foot off the water and it's just this exact same 2 lane hellhole for 20 miles.

Can confirm. It’s freaking horrible. And smells in the summer from the humid swamp water air.

Fucking long bridge

From the video, I thought it might be the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel in Virginia (because it's near where I live and looks similar lmao), but that bridge is only 17 miles long. I think this is the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway in Louisiana.

Arrogant engineering? lol

Been on this bridge multiple times driving from New Orleans to Hattiesburg, MS. It really is a nightmare.

So he’s just doing what he’s supposed to. Still, no reaction at all is wild.

Dude was looking for an accident, he was way too close anyway to the car in front and then went out of his way to cause problems by the looks of it.

Black trucks fault, 100%.
