I'm sorry Penelope but your answer suggests that your life is more important than some of your passengers. Who do you leave behind, women, children, elderly, or the disabled? Are they not also your responsibilty? You are the Captain of the Ship, You are also responsible for this castatrophe. Two ships cannot collide without each party being responsible. That responsibilty remains solely yours. If you leave the Ship with people aboard needing rescueing, your fate at the Board of Inquiry will indeed be sealed. And you would never command another ship again........Just merely my opinion
