Barge allided with Danube brige
Near Novi Sad the "Praga" allided with pillars of a bridge spanning the Danube River on May 19, 2012. The Ukrainian barge was travelling downstream toward Belgrade during the evening when it hit the central pilar of a bridge. In the aftermath of the allision, the bridge was closed to road and rail traffic, and teams of inspectors determined the bridge did not sustain serious damage to the pillar.
The "Praga" remained anchored until a detailed inspection can assess whether it was safe to continue its journey.
Ferry out of service due to bow damage
The "Margrete Læsø" had to be taken out of service on May 20, 2012, due to a damage to the bulbous bow suffered in an allision when the Læsø ferry crashed into the pier at the port of Frederikshavn on May 19, 2012, around 8 p.m. The ship had lost control of one of the main engines so that speed could not be reduced. The captain chose to run into an unoccupied quay space to stop the ship. A female passenger was injured and was taken to Hjørring Hospital. 5-6 cars on the car deck suffered bumps and bruises when they were pushed into each other. There was a total of about 150 passengers aboard. The waiting passengers were transported from Frederikshavn to Læsø in the evening. Then the ferry returned to Frederikshavn, where divers inspected the ferry in the morning of May 20. The ship had suffered cracks in the bulbous bow which had to be welded.
After completition of repairs, which were expected to be finished around noon, the "Margrete Læsø" was to depart from Frederikshavn as soon as possible, with an arrival at Vesterø expected at 2.20 p.m.
