[Maw Maw]

Collapsed like a deck of cards alright.


Are you from West Cork Maw Maw - O'Mathuna's?

Just seen another map of Baltimore on TV
There is Landsdowne and Essex as well

In the New England states/east coast, there’s a lot of English place names
Suffolk County, Yorktown, Barnstaple, etc

Was the bridge made of paper?

Some people have no idea of engineering

Woman captain ?

The Captain of such a ship is never in control of such a vessel in a port area like that.

Reports are saying that there were 2 pilots on board the ship, the responsibility lies with the pilots as they are in command.

Would not like to be the Captain of that ship--wonder do they have to use pilots in Baltimore?

Similar to Cork Port.

My buddy is a pilot below. They bring all these ships out.

They do
There was pilots on board.
Had to be some sort of mechanical and communication failure that they couldn’t send a warning to close the bridge.
It was drifting towards point of impact for 1km

Ship 'lost propulsion' and warned of crash - report​

The Dali container ship "lost propulsion" as it left the port and the crew on board had warned Maryland officials of a possible crash, according to ABC News, which cites an unclassified US intelligence report.
"The vessel notified MD Department of Transportation (MDOT) that they had lost control of the vessel and a collision with the bridge was possible," ABC quoted the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency as saying.
"The vessel struck the bridge causing a complete collapse."
