A cargo ship crashed into one of two main supports for the 2.5km long bridge at around 1:30AM EDT.
There is an ongoing search and rescue effort and authorities are looking for upwards of seven people.
But does that flag still wave?
Anyone missing the joke here: Francis Scott Key wrote the poem that became the national anthem.
Thanks. That was a solid reference that was way over my head
The joke was too smart for the mob
Too soon? Also just realized that I misquoted the anthem, which probably didn’t help.
No worries, friendo.
That looked expensive.
A cascading failure event. Luckily, there is already infrastructure money, so we don’t have to watch Congress dithering.
Might ss well start a ferry service. It’ll be decades before this is fixed/replaced.
reminds me of some video in Japan where they can rebuild stuff like this overnight.
