Been across that bridge on a number of trips, both driving Truck or car. This will play hell with traffic for quite a while.
Hope they'll be able to recover the bodies before the crabs get at them.

I just feel bad that I'll never get to see the spot where Frank Sobatka had his throat slashed now.

Notice the headlights stop just before the collision? Rumor has it the ship got out enough warning that coast guard called highway patrol and they stopped traffic.

If true... a remarkable display of competence so rarely found these days.

Whoever the Pilot was will take the blame. In those waters they are required to use local Pilots to drive the ships.
Damned lucky it happened in the middle of the night. Otherwise it would have had easily 100 vehicles on the bridge.

The views of the collapse from Andy Krawczyk's Granary Tower must have been stellar though.

This isn't a mass casualty event. This isn't even a bus accident worth of casualties.

Don't know how many people, if any were on the bridge. But yeah, it isn't mass casualty. It will be a huge economic disaster though.

It was reported as a mass casualty event before the coverup.

Yeah, RIP to anyone who relies on driving that stretch of 695.

No one, really. Its baltimore so most of the local residents are on welfare or in jail, and the main line of 95 crosses on different bridges.

Basically if you need to lose an interstate bridge, this is the one to choose. Aint exactly the GW...

Is it from the Port of Baltimore where the aid to Hamas is being shiped from? If so, this was likely a terrorist attack on the USA carried out by Israel.

The US didn’t veto the cease fire. Netanyahu canceled USA and then the bridge was destroyed, blocking access to the port. A coincidence?

The aid is likely not being shipped from Baltimore though. But still, that the bridge was destroyed in relation to all these other events is suspicious and we shouldn’t rule anything out.

Should I be impressed that the ship crashed into the support column AND had the bridge collapse on it, and the ship still seems fine?

Baltimore has a largely unemployed black population. They are given so many handouts and allowed to commit so much crime that they dont feel the need to work.

The bridge repair crew, despite the massive population of unemployed negroes right there, were all mexican migrants.

"and the ship still seems fine?"

Big ships are tough. With 100,000 tons of bouyancy bouncing around and twisted by big storm waves, on a moment arm if some 500 feet, they really have to be very strong to survive storms. Even cargo ships and passenger liners. Many cases of big merchant ships hitting smaller armored warships and the warships always lose.

The most famous case is when the sebs somehow fucked up basic escort duty and managed to place a cruiser in front of the large ocean liner queen mary. The cruiser sank rapidly and the liner suffered very minor damage.

Shear mass helps a lot.
