I don't think it was designed to handle a lateral impact of a couple hundred thousand ton ship hitting it at 5-10 kts
You can also wait for the car to fill with water, which will equalise the pressure, and open the door. Or roll down the window as you hit before the car loses power (or bonus if you've got manual windows, use the crank whenever.)
After 9/11, ports and railways are HEAVILY monitored. If you ever meet anyone that works at the Jax ports ask them about security.
Somehow this was the only game on the imacs in our high school computer lab and I played the fuck out of it when I was supposed to be writing reports/essays/etc
Was really commenting on the tik tok posted. Random to be filming the bridge at that time. I get the fixed position cameras that are always running, that one was just right place right time for a terrible event.
These days it’s rare if things are not caught on camera — whether that be security cameras or phones, everything is filmed.
Not sure what would surprise me more. TMB having a resident structural engineer who specializes in East Coast US bridges built between 1970 and 1980, or DBL arguing with that person about structural regulations and standards.
Realistically might not be in a financial position to pay for a surprise $700 ambulance ride and $3000 ER bill.
30,000 a day doesn't really sound like all that much for an interstate in a city the size of Baltimore
Dividing an annual number isnt the best way to do that. I’m sure weekends and holidays lower that number a bit.
Gun wouldn’t do anything. Every citizen should have their own cargo ships to ram into out of control cargo ships.
Watching Alex Jones craft a conspiracy out of this and then watching that make it’s way to mainline MAGA is going to be fascinating.
Ask me any of your maritime logistics and structural engineering questions. I dabble in my free time.
I’ve watched enough seasons of below deck to confirm ports could be tricky. Probably bad communication from the bosun.
I was borderline shocked a bridge engineering pissing contest had not broken out by mid way down page 2. The aviation engineers must be sleeping in this morning, they haven’t gotten the word to come over from the plane crash thread.
Aviation engineers are probably still exhausted from staying up past their bedtime watching Dora the Explorer and drinking their sugar free juice boxes. Aviation engineering is easy and for children, that's the insult i was going for
No. This bridge is the crossing for the Baltimore beltway (695). 95 goes straight through Baltimore. Can also take the Beltway the other way around. It will suck ass for traffic but it’s not going to be that much of a rerouting.
I did see a blue check saying it fell too easily and it’s a set up for something. Just the dumbest fucking people

"refused medical attention" Who the fuck is this guy? Just casually walking off being in a fucking bridge collapse
