I’m not exaggerating when I say this is one of my worst fears.

For those that don’t know, the Lincoln tunnel goes underground between NJ & NYC. It’s one lane each way & very claustrophobic, especially during traffic. THIS? I would abandon my car and run the fuck out. https://t.co/fbZepftvDs
A water main rupture was reported in a facility room in the Center Tube on Tuesday evening. It was fixed and the water was pumped out as designed. LT has 3 tubes, the roadway in each is 21+ feet wide! More facts: https://t.co/AtbuOtONs2 *CC

Twitter users from the area shared their concerns…
That would be a “waste line” or “sewer line.” A “water main” is usually potable water. Makes sense, what’s pouring in isn’t river water or sewage, it’s clean and clear. Still scary if in the tunnel and you don’t know.
