Why did it turn into the bridge? It was running straight under and would have cleared it without that port anchor. Why drop just 1 anchor? Why drop an anchor until you clear the bridge. Feels bogus like 9-11.
Emergency genset is only for basic utilities, this ship will have either 3 to 4 gensets of 2200 to 2400 kW each, this unit will be around 250-270 kW. Basic lighting, 1 steering unit, 1 air compressor, basic lighting and supply to fire/g.s pump only 1.
Can the mayor of Baltimore EVER!!! be bothered to show up to important press conferences in a coat and tie or other PROFESSIONAL attire that suits the matter at hand???!
I don’t know but it’s really start feeling like it’s everything happen intentionally why doesn’t happen in Europe? I mean look on transportation what happen with Boeing airport train crash highways bridges shipping containers raising the price I mean sure accident happened but not like that all the time
Gotcha, but noting the population differences between the US and various European nations can bring a bit of perspective. Given the overall state of US infrastructure, it's surprising that other industrial calamities aren't occurring. Still, the flood of other comments pointing to conspiracies is, in itself, a disturbing trend. It's emotional vs pragmatic. Folks without CVs in related fields are simply bringing mindless speculation vs waiting for the first set of facts. That's why investigations take time. (This shouldn't need stating.)
If this was intentional, why would one announce a May Day call from ship to port authorities… it’s an accident cause of human machine error … that’s it … but yes people have lost their lives … that’s horrible
Gotta blame the city leadership on this if cargo driver isn’t held accountable. But we all know that won’t be “Political correct” so nobody will be held accountable 🤷♂️
Hearing they waited days to interview crew. Anyone know if this is true? Shouldn't debriefings happen immediately?
When they rebuild that bridge they had better put a 100 yard concrete island around each of the bridge supports.
Pilots fault. Don’t blame anyone else. Look at all that room before the lights “go out”

They tried to slow by reversing the propellor .. u can see by the smoke … but that caused the drift and changing heading … what I feel
It is voyage data recorder not voice
Wait a second they don’t have an emergency switch if they lose power ?
LOL,it's like a train,it cannot stop on a dime.
And what is this emergency switch supposed to do?

So you’re telling me - the steering was also “powered” by electricity? 🤔 ..
they tried to steer away, drop port anchors and also send a sos to tugboats.
That ship was moving fast

Salvage ship..airbags not working
Buttigieg for POTUS. (Not being the least bit facetious, either.)

We need Trump now.
