been trained specifically to drive ships into the different ports and navigate the bay along with that tugs are come. tugboats also accompany large ships. now, caltrans admit you can't plan for everything and that's why emergency services are also part of the response plan. once the ship declares trouble near a bridge caltrans which shut down the toll plaza at the golden gate division of the chp would go right into operation and closed the freeway. so you would have access to the bridge. and while there are no absolutes, perry officials are confident that should a ship collided with a bridge in the bay area. once again. >> it should not result in the calamity we saw in baltimore. in san francisco, dan kerman kron. 4 news. >> thank you, dan. and as for the golden gate bridge, it features the most robust ship collision protection of any bridge on the west coast. the north tower is partially on land. meaning a large vessel would rather ground before colliding with that and the
