There's more information about the overall safety features on this big ship, the problem is humans only really learn from our mistakes after great tragedies like this happen. This bridge transports materials that are extremely dangerous and must take every precaution like by passing large populations, now these materials will be pushed to travel greater distances or drive through the city. The problem is human error caused by no accountability for issues that needed to be addressed because of lack of maintenance.

What is the remedy that I don't know, I do know that big businesses are being pushed to hire people who are lacking the overall training or short staffed. There is no conspiracy for this one if there was it would have gained more traction then the ones people are searching for. This boils down to accountability and holding people responsible for their actions and making sure examples are being made.

But I doubt any of that will happen since the train derailment situation has basically been pushed out of the peoples minds and we will never find out for sure if anything will change.

Referring to an old school yard slogan when we were little kids. Gene gene made a machine , frank frank gave it a crank , joe joe made it go , Art art let a fart and blew the whole machine apart. Maybe it was just a local thing because we always said it to a kid who's dad was named Art.

Haha I thought we were just asking who some one was when some one named them. Anything that rhymed with fart when your ten is funny I guess it still is when your 50 to

Let's be real. If the bridge was vaccinated and masked it would still be standing.

Dali ship owners deny all responsibility for deadly Baltimore bridge collapse and call for $43.6m payout cap​

The owners of the Dali container ship involved in the deadly collapse of a Baltimore bridge last week, after it crashed into the structure, have denied responsibility and are seeking to limit their legal liability.

Grace Ocean Private Limited, the ship’s owner, and the manager Synergy Marine Pte said in a federal court filing on Monday that they denied any fault or neglect of the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge that claimed the lives of six construction workers.

The companies are asking for exoneration from liability, but if they are held responsible in lawsuits, the companies are asking for a cap on any payout.

The joint filing, submitted in a Maryland District Court, seeks to cap the companies’ liability at roughly $43.6m.

“The [bridge collapse] was not due to any fault, neglect, or want of care on the part of [ship owner & operator], the Vessel, or any persons or entities for whose acts [ship owner & operator] may be responsible,” the filing stated.

“Alternatively, if any such faults caused or contributed to the [bridge collapse], or to any loss or damage arising out of the [bridge collapse], which is denied, such faults were occasioned and occurred without [ship owner & operator] privity or knowledge.”

The owner and operator of the Dali vessel submitted the filing under the Limitation of Liability Act of 1851, a piece of legislation that enables ship owners to limit their liability for certain claims to the value of the vessel and its cargo at the end of its journey.

The filing estimates that the vessel itself is valued at up to $90m and was owed over $1.1m in income from the freight. They also estimate that repair costs will be at least $28m and at least $19.5m in salvaging the ship.

The 300-metre-long vessel had a cargo of 4,679 containers when it lost power and collided with the bridge in the early hours of the morning on 26 March.

Construction workers were on the 1.6-mile-long bridge at the time of the collapse, with the structure falling into the Patapsco river below.

Two people were rescued shortly after, but six people, all construction workers, remained missing in the days after until two bodies were recovered from the disaster area submerged in the water.

Four people remain missing but have been presumed dead by authorities.

Weren't the Port pilots in charge of the ship at the time of the accident? Does that put the liability on the owners/operators of the port?
