Details Surrounding Her Disappearance
A Reddit post updating Amy Huang’s disappearance revealed the following details.
Amy’s car was found abandoned on the San Mateo Bridge at mid-span at around 2:21 AM on April 1st.
Dashcam footage shows her in grey pajamas at the time.
The bridge cameras did not capture the pedestrian movement, only noting that her car entered the bridge and never left.
Before parking, Amy drove back and forth across the bridge several times. Her phone and wallet were left inside the vehicle, but her car and house keys were missing.
Authorities contacted her emergency contact after she failed to show up for work later that morning.
Her father retrieved the car at 3 AM after it was towed from the bridge, and there were no visible signs of damage or struggle.
Amy was not on any medication or substances, and her family says she was feeling unwell the night before her disappearance.
Despite these alarming circumstances, police and coast guard officials stated that there was little they could do initially, citing the 17-hour delay in reporting her missing.
Speculation and Calls for Action
Social media users have been expressing frustration over the lack of immediate action.
Some have questioned why authorities have not yet conducted a water search, considering the location where Amy’s car was found.

Have you tried contacting CALTRANS they have CCTV LIVE STREAMING. Not sure if it’s already been done on the search for answers. If not, it’s worth a shot. Also I would Google search dispatch radio transcript for the hours of her car being found by CHP. I know this, when a friend of mine died from a traffic accident. I was able to find the conversation of the entire communications logs between SLPD, CHP, & ASCO for his accident and other reports that came through before and after his accident reports. I never contacted any agency either. But it was my neighbor’s cousin and who died, she was devastated she wanted answers because stories she was getting weren’t adding up and didn’t seem logical. Honestly I believed in her cousins situation ASCO may have chased him or he was speeding away and crashed getting off an exit but how the scene looked and how tow trucks tire marks had to come in to get his car and where they claimed he may have come off the over pass and not the freeway exit are not what evidence clearly showed when I went to the scene with his family. It’s really sad but check into it. Caltrans and radio transaction logs for the time and date. When I did the search for my friend it was literally within the hour of his accident. He did not survive his crash may he rest in peace, but I believe it was a wrongful death situation for him, so get a good lawyer to advocate and demand records and reports and videos.
