I still do not understand why the ship turned into the bridge when it was drifting past.

All sort of conflicting reported answers on what the pilot did or did not do.

'Drifting' is what an object does when moving at the same speed as the water it is floating in.

Well; it's the internet so we have that going for us.

What could the pilot do?

Even dropping anchor requires power.

Not a mariner, but I’ve paid attention to mariners who have tried to explain what happened. The ship lost power and was drifting. There was wind to the ship’s starboard side. The wall of containers acted as a sail pushing the ship into the bridge.
