enough life jacket for everybody
Because it was major how it sank and people didnt know it was.
Yes, new laws were established making sure that every ship had more than enough lifeboats.
There were no laws yet in place about when the distress radios had to be monitored. Not all ships even had them. The Britannica only had crew monitoring her radio during day time hours. Titanic had her collision at night while the Britannica crew slept.

In the weeks after the Titanic went down, Sentors ordered order and wanted to know "WHY did a brand-new sink with HUGE loss of life?" A month after, the Sentor broke the rule that, EVERY ship over 10,000 tons had to have 16 lifeboats on board.
The question is far to broad in scope. There are literally thousands of laws concerned in the purchase of ships and shipping.
It was thought to be unsinkable but hit an iceberg and went to the bottom. They didn't put as many lifeboats on as they should've so most of the passengers died. edit: actuly white star lines never claimed the titanic to be unsinkable its just when someone was asked about it they said they though it was the closest thing to unsinkable so the newspapers seized on that. several shipping laws were changed after it sank sorry for bad grammar
