The worry was that a terrorist could use a large tractor-trailer truck to take down a bridge by filling it with explosives and detonating it either near the anchor points for a suspension bridge's cables, or on the bridge itself. Especially worrisome are the seven bridges across the San Fransico Bay.

Oooh - so the terrorist is going to be DUMB? How hard would it be to bypass this? A few plumbing fittings? Folks, to load up a trailer will take time, so you spend the extra hour and bypass the dump valve, or even weld the bumper so it can't move

GAD, this is clueless
