Traveling on a steamboat was dangerous due to the risk of boiler explosions, which could occur from poor maintenance or overpressure. Additionally, the threat of fires was significant, as the boats often carried flammable cargo. Navigational hazards like shallow waters and obstacles also posed risks, potentially leading to groundings or collisions. Lastly, inadequate safety regulations and overcrowded conditions further heightened the dangers for passengers and crew.
