    I retired at the end of 2022 after working for 50 years at most every port facility in Baltimore. Back in the mid 70's when the bridge was built no one imagined that container ships would become so large. In those 50 years there has never been a problem with them till now. Maybe some of these behemoths are too large to safely come in here.

      Bottom line we pay people huge salaries to deal with these safety issues, but most of these jobs are given as handouts anymore. If this was so easy to do, they should have built barriers or did whatever to make it safer. This could have been so much worse if that bridge was full! We used to hold people accountable, now we are just reacting to tragedies like Maui when government people are not doing what their payed to do! We have agencies and spend billions of tax payer dollars and huge benefits for people to be on top of these risks.

      Because of the bridge supports being vulnerable to an impact from an out of control ship etc there should have been a tug escort until these massive ships passed the bridge.
      Now tally the cost of a tug and a man's wage and fuel against the cost of lives ,the cleaning up and the cost for building a new bridge, it took me literally 1 second to work out the cheapest option, but what do I know, I'm just a simple carpenter/joiner

      Yes, I definitely understand that currents are present in these types of waterways and what currents can do. My comment was to what degree would it be necessary to turn such a heavy laden ship 90+ degrees, or more, in such a short span of distance. Would it take the usual anticipated current or billowing waves? We must ask these questions. Question everything, not just me.
      Go back and re-read my comment. That is why I mentioned Newton's First Law. Were the undercurrents, alone, enough to turn the ship so abruptly and to such a degree? I don't know. I understand the issue about the position of the rudder, but does the physics make sense in this situation? Never be naive or gullible. Again, question everything!
      On the other hand, thanks for your response. It is all good commentary. Way back when I was in corporate America, we would have "Blue Sky" Monday meetings. That was a meeting where all ifnthe engineers in my group would come together and throw out ideas without the concern of any idea being over the top or stupid. That way we got practically every possibility on the table. Next, we would review every idea for its benefits, if any, then discard what was left. Oftentimes the so-called dumbest ideas had some of the best hidden gems.

      Its poor ship design and even poorer decision making by the crew
      The ship had no back up to the propulsion so even though electrical power was restored, it was still out of control
      The bridge should have been made the decision to turn the ship around using what limited control they had
      The fact is that the captain did not want to pay the extra money involved with returning to port to resolve the issue
      instead , he opted to chance it
      The last bit showing the ship veering shows that bow thruster was still operational
      so bad ship design and even worst decision making by the crew

      There was significant piling in place to protect the supports. This has nothing to do with the bridge, but everything to do with the ship. It lost power, lost its steering, while the 100,000 ton barge veered straight for a support. It was a very well constructed bridge and was in great shape, but not built to resist that force and weight. It is the barge sizes that need to be reevaluated.

    Country music festival not christian church. But the logic of nonprofit and contactless payments. Regarding how it is a type of insurance and the way the event seems, seems like a religious meetup.
    Thus, they are people who are using a lot of unionizing and event organizing and using audio engineering and using scams.
    Therefore, the context of the plans they have for fairness for the people attacked by them or who didn't go or are stalked and so forth. Regarding how the country music festival viewed as christian services could be the Maersk and the Frances key bridge...
    Like, the example would be a full 'country' country music festival license ticket payment each year like a subscription; and be returned to the people like a nonprofit. It's paid by a credit union because it's a nonprofit and later the people pay/ contribute (which is decided by attendance). Same could be said with schools, public and private. And libraries. All of it with the credit union could imply work.
    Therefore, having a profile and insurance could be solving homelessness through outreach nonprofit organizations as well as mental health issues and behavioral issues, etc. like it's able to be a government internet investments of social organizations through a nonprofit organization. Which would mean that it's like a type of peace corps stipend payment associated with subscriptions and memberships through nonprofits (like, as an internet provider employee and so forth, the free websites aren't free but appear to be.). Like, Google's apps and search and websites as well as other things like free phones are all relying on the contributions.
    Thus, without a full portfolio for it like it is a country wide government nonprofit including the full fediverse, it's like always spending money on things not being used without being reimbursed but with the insurance, it's like always having a lower quality version considered free due to it being a free recreational service for the yearly contribution (despite not being public.).
    Thus, peace corps and how festivals could be a type of social services using the businesses as nonprofits for organizing social media technologies and profiles (data collections) for the conflict resolution of community services costs...
    Complicated but with a plan...
    Potentially populations are unionizing like confiscations of property that is already nonprofit while acting against peace corps while denying correct social services and community insurance; and it makes automated systems of Bitcoin and safepal and dapp systems have book keeping financial aid social media and agreements made automatically like the persons are employees with default payment plans for conflict resolution (like bankers assistance helps them pay for the circumstances like one-time donations).
    As though Churches are country music festivals.
    Google Fi is festival insurance?
    "Fi" is festival insurance?
    Scientology basically is it, so it solves the case.
    Therefore they force people to be homeless and charge them for everything claimed as free and make them pay rent and deny their insurance and deny their finance while making stories about having to pay security and so forth. Like, later they still follow and stalk the people but it's like "you probably get paid unemployment financial aid services from a school union educating about nonprofits" while supporting capitalism (classifying the people as prisoners; it could be the same reason why safepal dapp system is about geopolitical systems of finance and division/ diverse finance rather than being in personal pocket as well as avoidance of credit unions and so forth). Thus, it's like "when did those people ever live differently? Because it's always an excuse and their intellectual property work and legal work was always like fake nonprofits while doing fake community service." Like, they modified costs and made charges and relations that were starting fights and imprisoning people who were employees. Like they use no business formality nor use proper business programs instead it's like identity fraud and theft.
    The true costs of UA-cam and deepfake insurance when the people wouldn't believe that they are paying but will never pay more than the minimum while accumulating media against them (like a profile network they would want to put into collections and do an employment credit payment plan for resolving; which would look like holding a fulcrum against theirself while paying the people who used it to attack them like they are meeting the employment Insurance needs and apologizing (financial prison)).
    Financial prisoners always ask for free lawyers like they can't use their own didactic reasoning because they already tied up their didactic reasoning legal work with conflicts (as though they are bitcoins held in fulcrum-wallets-against them).
    Thus, the addressing would be the context of conflict between the different groups and cultures and their employment records and relations and insurance. Similar to "what's right and true for one person isn't right nor true for another." Thus, using christian services/ church/ festival insurance to organize public schools and make social business contracts like a migration division of worker employment (a dependency program contract (could be an ultimatum presupposed by claims that they did more work than others cared to recognize was needing to be important and relevant towards the diction of their Bitcoins and value of contribution and insurance (similar to not conforming to the issues of identity related circumstances of finance relations through safepal dapp))).
    Safepal dapp could be really old and be much more global in it's roots now than before, regarding the content of negotiations having expanded into a full fediverse of dapp. In fact, safepal and dapp could be, SNAP benefits programs (like the more torrents and seeds and so forth, the more they have geopolitical debit options like a meritocracy insurance profile). Denying education in courts when the formality of situation defines the arrangement as an only ultimatum of the judge for a choice between two unions of option for their geopolitical finance means that safepal dapp (snap) has a solution already pre-planned (since it's all preplanned and repositories, the libraries or organizing is like real insurance employment work).
    Was doing ordz (bitboy and bitgirl) not orders? (Native instruments is them?) Find my device/network when it could be like the ultimate property management negotiations technologies of assets and liabilities claims. (Find your, find our, find theirs, etc.).
    Find my passport. Find my records.
    Find my DOL find my bank account.
    The con artists.
    Find my Intel, like how would you know? Just screen looking.
    Roth IRA, IRS taxes when making over the limit. It's conversion finance and the taxes are like union insurance deposits; it's not a warlord tax system (supportive business, educated business). It's like an educators insurance tax collections and uses (public health, etc).

      The channel is two-way, like a road. Why do you drive on one side of the road and not in the middle?
      That port is open 24/7. Like airports. They don't stop just because it gets dark.
      What reason would there have been to NOT allow the Dali to leave?

    My issue with the whole mess is if traffic frequently goes by, why didn’t they do something to protect those supports. If it was so easy to knock down, they should have been thinking ahead, not just reacting to a tragedy. It seems too many of those are happening. We employ and pay large salaries too people and a functioning government should be on top of things like this. We have too many people in these positions that just collect their charity and are not doing their job. Back just a few years ago, people would be held accountable for the negligence at some point. That bridge could have easily been filled with cars on it! Our Government is too concerned with pronouns vs. what their real responsibility is.

      If I am a city that has a port that is extremely important economically for the city, I should take care of the security of the port myself. Especially if there is only one access route to the port.
