More Deficient Bridges than McDonald's in the USA

We all drive on bridges, overpasses, and viaducts that we assume must be safe because, surely, somebody inspected them and determined that they are safe. We pay taxes so somebody makes sure the bridges and roads are safe, right?
That trust is badly misplaced. For decades, we have been using up our infrastructure faster than we have been replacing it. [...]
More than three-quarters of the 239 heavily used bridges in the nation’s capital are rated structurally deficient or obsolete, the American Society of Civil Engineers estimates.
