Scapegoat, moonbat???

The twit hit a ship at anchor!!

Unknown. The Marine Board is investigating the circumstances of the collision.

Drunken captains and crew are fairly common, moonbat. Common enough that navies and many merchant marine services specifically prohibit any alcohol on board (other than isopropyl, used in the medical facility, and which is poisonous).

Why was a stationary US military tanker blocking their established and well-used route ?

Stena Immaculate had travelled from Agioi Theodoroi in Greece, and was anchored 13 miles (21 km) off Withernsea, offshore from the Humber estuary and the city of Kingston upon Hull, waiting to arrive at Killingholme dock at 17:30 GMT on 9 March This location was a common but uncharted anchorage for ships traversing the east coast. Eight other vessels were also anchored at this location at the time of the collision, including five other tankers and three bulk carriers.

The man said the Solong didn't immediately stop after smashing into the Stena, and that it felt like it continued to drive into the ship for about 10 minutes after the initial impact. The man said other crew members on the Stena, which was apparently carrying jet fuel for the U.S. military, described how it appeared as though nobody was on the bridge of the Solong at the moment of the crash.
