I’ll ask you all again...

What direction does a ship go if it loses steering capability?

The direction it was ALREADY GOING!

This ship made a 90 degree turn RIGHT INTO THE BRIDGE SUPPORT!

Watch the 8x speed video. Accident? Only a FOOL could believe this was an accident.

Not exactly. If you crank the rudder to the side and cut power, it will coast into the turn. IF the rudder was hard over prior to losing power they may nit have been able to straighten it out.
