Is it safe to hide under a bridge in a tornado?

No. It can be one of the worst places; although there is video footage of a man with his daughter surviving as they took cover under a bridge. They survived mainly because the tornado missed the bridge. The bridge itself creates a wind tunnel effect that cause the wind to accelerate as it passes through. Additionally, bridges offer no protection from debris, which is the main killer in a tornado.
