Two cars went off Big Creek Bridge

I originally erroneously reported Bixby Bridge, as that is line 4, but it appears it is actually Big Creek.

What we all feared has finally happened. One patient in critical condition.

Helen Forbes: Big Creek Bridge is south of Esalen & north of Lucia.
In the right column find 'PAGES', open the BS Interactive map.

- From the look on the interactive maps- also on the site, it seems to be located South of Cow Cliffs Rockfall Area..
