Wow. Sorry you had such a bad experience. We took the train to Jeff City, and despite not
liking to ride on the road--we had no problem riding across the bridge. In fact, as I recall
it was early on a weekend and drivers slowed and got over to the far left lane so that we
could ride in the right lane and out of the "debris" that is common on the side of the road.
I hope other's aren't discouraged--it's a good idea carry a "backup" phone number (cab,
B&B) in case I see a bridge I don't like. (A mirror also makes such bridge crossings a little
less stressful).
