It's like driving up the sheer face of a mountain to me. The same with the 1000 Islands bridge in Alexandria Bay.
Maybe the technology didn't exist back when they built those two bridges, but the incline on both is nerve shattering, at least to me. I can't imagine what it's like driving them in an 18 wheeler!
