I love the comment "the all Indian crew put out a mayday that saved lives." Yeah, but you forgot to stop the fucking ship in the first place, morons.

How do you figure? They didn't see the bridge? They couldn't emergency stop when they figured out it was going to collide with it?

Apparently power went out and they've lost the ability to steer.

And even if they still had the ability to stop all propulsion, nothing that size and weight is going to stop on a dime.

It was at night in open sea and in 1912. Francis Scott Key bridge has been there for 47 years and it was daylight, not to mention all the technology at their disposal plus the Port of Baltimore, with tons of assistance, was close by. And yet again, the root cause was not the berg/bridge, it was the choices made by the company who owned the boats; Titanic owners thought it was unsinkable and didn't properly compartmentalize the ship allowing it to sink very fast. In this case, cutting corners on maintenance. It certainly wasn't the bridge's fault.

Titanic also used defective steel plates.
