Baltimore Bridge Collapse Disrupts East Coast Truck Fleets
It was a disaster in slow motion. On the night of March 26, as various surveillance cameras passively watched, the massive container ship Dali lost power for as-yet-unexplained reasons and plowed into one of the support structures of the Francis Scott Key bridge in Baltimore, Maryland — a major artery in and out of the Port of Baltimore. The bridge never stood a chance against a container ship of that size. It collapsed like it was made of matchsticks.
