The truth is there are probably more "near misses" than people would be comfortable with if they knew it.
If anything, it's amazing that it doesn't happen more often. Just a testament to how good these pilots are at their job.

This is accurate!
I work in the shipping business, this happens more than you would think. I can't say 100% not terrorism but everything I've seen fits into an accident.
As far as it turning to starboard towards the bridge after it briefly got power back? Fixed pitch screws initially force the stern SIDEWAYS especially when put into full power and when it got power back the pilot probably ordered full astern power to stop the ship. When that is done while moving forward the stern is going to initially be pushed sideways until water flow around the screws is more laminar and less turbulent. Then the power is lost again and the ship is stuck in the turn caused by this phenomenon.
