I just heard about that on the news over here. They said that the ship was experiencing power outages before it left port and experienced one immediately before striking the bridge. I would say that the ship was not fit to leave the port, someone is likely going to be in a lot of very serious trouble for what has happened.

I agree I would also ask why they didn't drop the anchor, which is gravity feed, could stop the ship?

They did drop anchor, but to no avail. :(

I saw one report that said they did drop the anchor and that’s what put them on a collision course with the bridge. So much speculation that most of it is guess work. One thing that did bother me was the report that this is not the first major collision the ship has had.
