My apologies for the Twitter link. Appears to have happened around 1:30 EDT, judging from the timestamp in the video. Seems unsurprising that Amerikkkan infrastructure is in this dire of a state (at the cost of innocent people's lives, as usual), but I'd still love to know what the hell happened here. Hopefully the early hour meant that more people weren't harmed.

    No bridge is going to be designed to take a direct hit from a container ship. This is a multi level failure of the ship and the tugs.

      I would think that bridges should have redundancy such that taking out a single support doesn’t cause total failure. Idk I’m not an entomologist

        This is the kind of take that people point to when they say, "America bad is no substitute for an actual analysis"
