Historian	NOT in the BLOODY FAKE MEDIA. Not uncommon - DIRTY FUEL? The MV Dali had sailed for an hour along the Patapsco River when an officer onboard reported that lights began flickering, followed by the smell of burning fuel permeating the engine room. knews.kathimerini.com.cy/en/news/dirty-f...dge-collapse-tragedy maritime-executive.com/article/investiga...ssible-contamination

A uniquely defensive and dodgy response to a reasonable and informative reply. And STILL no reasonable information on WHY the ship's power failed TWICE!! I would DEFINITELY be VERY frightened to meet YOU in real life "Historian"... Absolutely no idea what you are banging on about most of the time either...

To be fair, from 1960 to 2015, there were 35 major bridge collapses worldwide due to ship or barge collision, with a total of 342 people killed, according to a 2018 report from the World Association for Waterborne Transport Infrastructure. Eighteen of those collapses happened in the United States. apnews.com/article/bridge-collapses-barg...ddc625aaaf3b32c626bc A reasonable and informative response had my post read that the Baltimore bridge structure looks uniquely dodgy for bridges. But it didn't.
Toronto	Considering there's around 620,000 bridges in the US (China has c1m; Hamburg, by far, has the EU city record) - bridge collisions/accidents aren't really a major issue, overall.
