How the fukk is a ship more powerful than a bridge that's supposed to hold the weight of several cars?!

Probably a dumb question, but are you telling me all it takes is ONE big ass ship to take down a bridge? Or was this particular bridge old?
Breh…

I’m not trying to single you out, but think about what a bridge is and how it’s constructed or watch some videos on how they’re constructed and look at other bridge failures and collapses throughout recent history.

I used to go underway with Navy ships (non nuclear battleships) for my old gig and we did lose ships power every now and then. I never thought about how dangerous that could be if it happened in a port area.

I’m sure the investigation will show the cause to be to an accidental power loss or something, but it makes one wonder as we move closer towards automated everything…how much at risk are we of allowing a hacker to access a large cargo ship’s control system to cause havoc?

OMG that so scary. WTF? How did something like this even happen?
Ships go through there all the time.

The US government is suppressing this story HEAVILY. Only local news is really talking about it and they aren't even highlighting the deaths.

This should be state of emergency news, Biden's old ass should be addressing the nation right now.

This isn't even trending news on Google right now.
nikka shut up smh

that's horrible. i read rescue teams were able to find two drivers so far. hopefully they can find more soon.

seems like the ship lost power but these things usually have backup generators to help them navigate and keep the ship on course. first planes now ships are failing :sadcam:
