We have also done the route a couple of times, BUT, I would highly advise that you make a "pit stop" BEFORE you get on the bridge. There is a rest area about halfway or so on the bridge, but if you are unfortunate enough to get stuck by an accident, you could be sitting there a while as there isn't really any room to get around an accident and you aren't going to be able to turn around. You know what they say, "plan for the worst and hope for the best".
