> It was blocked off the shortly after the ship pilots sent their mayday signal and declared an emergency, giving the traffic that was on the bridge time to make it through. This video makes that a little hard to believe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJNRRdha1Xk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJNRRdha1Xk. Looks like traffic was crossing up until the last second. Will have to do some more reading as it's very confusing what the ship was doing and what it should have been doing under normal circumstances. In the video, it almost looks like it was steered directly into the bridge. Very confusing. > They're called "dolphins" and some bridges do have them. Thanks for that!
