Baltimore Key Bridge Taken Out by Ship

From what little I’ve seen, the ship was not even in the correct channel to begin with & it was setting up for a collision with that pylon before the power went out

Now that’s tin foil for ya but it comes from a guy I was stationed with for 3 years & is now a cop in Baltimore who is retiring this year

It was off course from the get go but here is what I can't make work in my head. If it is known that single screw ships will yaw in a specific direction when the propeller is run in reverse, why would you ever run the propeller in reverse in a narrow channel unless you were on a direct collision course with the bridge, which at the time they reversed they were not? Their explanation for the turn is that the reversal of the prop caused it and they knowingly put it in reverse knowing it would push them into the bridge. Why not just coast on through without being in control since you aren't going to hit the bridge? We know they weren't going to hit the bridge until the turn and we know they did the turn on purpose. This just could be human error in response to the loss of power but why not just say that?
