You know what is NOT happening in Baltimore?

21. The ship lost power

I saw one post either here or on Xitter that someone on the ship radioed the problem and police moved to halt traffic, but there wasn't sufficient time for the vehicles already on the bridge to make it across.

Did a little research and found this:

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/investigations/2024/03/26/baltimore-bridge-collapse-ship-dali/73105394007/

"The vessel notified MD Department of Transportation (MDOT) that they had lost control of the vessel" and a collision with the bridge "was possible," according to the report by DHS’ Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. "The vessel struck the bridge causing a complete collapse."

Also that the DALI is multiple times bigger than anything that existed in 1977 when the bridge was built, and that there are container ships today even larger.
