Can we PLEASE stop with the conspiracy theories? Container ship hits bridge in south China, killing 5 and knocking section of roadway into the water | AP News
Unless you are living under a rock, you have heard about MV Dali and the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore. If you are tuned into social media at all you might have heard about the barge colliding with the bridge in Oklahoma. Because OMG!!! A boat hit something! We must be under attack!
It couldn't possibly be that boats hit things, and that occasionally bridges fall down.
Five people died after a large container ship hit support pillars for a bridge over a river in southern China early on Thursday, sending a section of the roadway and five vehicles crashing down.
Three small trucks, a bus and a scooter fell off the bridge south of the city of Guangzhou, authorities said. The bus, the scooter and one of the trucks landed inside the empty ship, and the other two trucks fell into the water.
That happened in February.
Boats hit things. Bridges fall down. Dams fail. That is life. If you want the world to be absolutely safe, you might try holding your breath, because that has about as much chance of working as anything else does.
