Why is there a myth that hiding under a highway underpass during a tornado is safe?

Some people believe that the bridge will stop the vertical movement of air in a tornado, ignoring the fact that there is a horizontal component as well. This idea became more popular when a family and some storm chasers took shelter under a bridge and survived without harm. However, what was not immedeately apparent was that the tornado actually missed the bridge.
