  1. The vehicles that were on the bridge belonged to the construction workers and were parked. The bridge was shut down. The cops blocked traffic just before the ship hit. There were no other cars on the bridge.

  2. This youtube title is exactly what all the big media outlets do. Alter the title and information for their gain. A retired captain weighs in. You know what you did there, it wasn't a mistake, its calculated

  3. If the engine is "working hard", then the ship isn't exactly adrift, is it? Regardless of electrically-enabled steering capacity, shouldn't the engine either have stopped working or, if powered in reverse, slowed the ship? instead, didn't the ship continue speed and veer far off course to collide with the support? Strange.

  4. Tragedy’s like this always have more to the story. This doesn’t just happen. Especially when our president quickly decides he wants tax payers to fund its rebuild. This was to crash the economy because multiple nations use this passage. The captain was Ukrainian, the flag on the ship was some other country, and we still have to pay for it from our pocket, even when both parties have insurance and are responsible. It’s definitely got some meat to the story.

  5. The wind..the tide is all I keep reading about why the ship dramatically turned directly into the pylon. Yet the water looks calmer than ever and it looked like they were drifting right under the bridge before they did whatever they did to "help" the situation. Seems rather suspicious 🤷‍♂️

  6. This is what happens when our Transportation Secretary is a diversity hire. This, East Palestine, all the Boeing stuff. If you want these disasters to keep happening, remember to vote Blue!

  7. You don't tell the truth? This was a significant port in the eastern part of the US. This should not be possible except for Government negligence. You would say as a cover up to look at other issues first, but this should be addressed as Government Terrorism! This ship should have had escort tugs to pull it out of the critical area past the bridge structure. There should have been safety pylons to slow impact if this did happen. What your saying is this is a complete failure of Port Authorities and Transportation Authority? GO FIGURE!

  8. That wasn't cool they put "Captain Explains" cuz people are gonna assume it's "The Captain" that was on the boat. They also put his picture up with his name which is even worse. He's gonna get harassed. NO, it wasn't the Captain aboard. This whole situation is absolutely terrible. I pray they find some survivors. Praying for the families that lost their loved ones.
