If there were a dent in the Bay Bridge do you think they would allow vehicles to traverse it? Or would it be still "completely intact?"

Just because it's underneath the car does not make it "OK" for it to be bashed up. That piece needs to be replaced. The visual damage doesn't even tell the half of it if they actually placed the entire ~1400 lb rear weight of the car upon that one point.
