If you look at the Wikipedia List of Bridge Failures [1], since 2000, the US has had 28 bridge failures, over double the next highest entry on that list. Bridge failures are big enough events that, for developed countries, there's little chance of missing significant ones so we can treat the data as mostly reliable. Per capita, there are some countries higher like Canada. but it's pretty clear that US bridges are unusually bad compared to most other developed countries.
