10 Dec
Summary
- A small plane crash-landed on a Toyota Camry on I-95.
- The car's driver sustained minor injuries in the incident.
- The NTSB is investigating the plane's engine power loss.
An unusual event disrupted traffic on Interstate 95 in Florida's Brevard County, as a small aircraft was forced to make an emergency landing on a moving Toyota Camry. The unexpected collision occurred on Monday, creating a startling scene captured on dashcam video.
Brevard County Fire Rescue reported that the vehicle's driver, aged 57, was transported to a local hospital for treatment of minor injuries. The occupants of the small plane, numbering two, reportedly escaped the incident without any physical harm. The highway closure and subsequent investigation caused significant traffic disruptions.
The National Transportation Safety Board has since initiated a formal investigation into the circumstances surrounding the crash. Preliminary findings suggest that the airplane experienced an engine power failure shortly before it descended onto the freeway, leading to the crash-landing.
