Collapse of part of a bridge in Italy disrupts traffic A part of the bridge at the intersection of the A2 and A30 highways on the route between Salerno and Avellino, Italy, collapsed on Thursday, October 29, causing traffic disruptions on this highway. The debris caused by the fall fell on a "Smart" car passing under the bridge and damaged it, but there were no casualties in this incident. Preliminary estimates show that the collision of a truck carrying a mechanical excavator on the bridge was probably the cause of the accident.
