Old Mauds-Hughes Bridge

Continuing to paint some small winter paintings to get in the mood for the season, this is a portrait of the just replaced single lane bridge near Hughes Station, Liberty Township. Its location between two right angle turns, with no Stop posted on either side, had become a test of nerves and civility. Would the other driver note the One Lane Bridge sign? If they did, would they yield to the car already stopped on the other side? Would they come barreling through? If they did, would there be enough room for you to squeak through?
