A Russian cargo ship veered off course and bumped into a bridge off the southeast coast of South Korea on Thursday with a drunk captain on board, authorities said.

The Korea Coast Guard (KCG) said the 5,998-ton Seagrand sailed into the side of the Gwangan Bridge at around 4:20 p.m. before turning back to head in the opposite direction.

The KCG nabbed the vessel and questioned the crew aboard. It said the ship's Russian captain, whose identity is being withheld, had a blood alcohol content of 0.086 percent. The legal limit is 0.03 percent.

That would have been a good ship for pirates to attack.

Pucker factor must’ve been turned up to 11 for those folks driving on the bridge.

I’m honestly surprised this doesn’t happen more often.

Your honor, I was just out for a leisurely sail. I don't know where that bridge came from.

I can't believe he was so far out of the channel! Even at .08, this guy should have been able to see how far off they were.

Also, at the end of the article-

Authorities said the Seagrand had also hit a cruise ship moored at the same port about 40 minutes before hitting the bridge. (Yonhap)

So no one on board saw that they were going straight for the bridge and thought to say "hey, comrade...put down the vodka and watch where we're going"?

Something more had to have been going on. You don't run straight at a bridge that you have no shot of clearing at .086 BAC. A true Russian could probably pass a field sobriety test at that level.
