Some time last year I took a break from watching the First 48 murder mystery type shows before bed and watched Disasters At Sea which is like a 3 season documentary of shit going terribly wrong on big boats
Lot of these ships get sold and redesigned/repurposed with some sketchy ass engineering, but that usually just entails them sinking and not colliding with something Will be interesting to see what comes out of this during the investigation. Just terrible timing, almost unbelievable |

For those who know the area, how much will the loss of this bridge impact people locally? It's gonna take years to get it replaced, and I have to imagine it's gonna cause a giant cluster**** in the surrounding area.

Maryland governor already stating a preliminary investigation determined it was an accident
I'd imagine it should be known fairly quickly what happened due to personal interviews and data recorders unlike a sunken ship with no survivors |

Someone may have already stated this but they are starting to say the ship lost power and that's why they couldn't prevent it from hitting the bridge
