A lot of these ships are controlled via GPS to keep them in the channels. I wonder if this crash will entail a software bug or system failure.

- QuarterReptile 3y agoThis ship was under pilotage at the time. In the same way that airline captains don't sleep during takeoff or landing, the captain is in the bridge (and with the assistance of a harbor-specific pilot) for the entirety of maneuvering in and out of a harbor.
- giantg2 3y agoYeah, but they're usually relying on GPS, especially at night, even if they are at the controls. The controls are drive by wire anyways, even if they aren't using GPS plots.
