Insane Footage Shows Plane Crashing Into Car on Highway

Astonishing footage has emerged of the moment a light aircraft bounced off the roof of a car on a Florida highway. A 57-year-old woman was taken to the hospital after a Beechcraft 55 hit her Toyota Camry as it attempted an emergency landing on the I-95 between Orlando and Cape Canaveral on Monday. Footage of the incident shows the twin-engine plane dropping directly onto the car’s roof, before bouncing off in front of it and skidding onto the central parting of the interstate. WESH 2 reports that the National Transportation Safety Board said the flight was instructional, with two 27-year-olds on board, and had taken off from Merritt Island. The network added that the pilots reported losing power in both engines and that, while no one was seriously hurt in the incident, the NTSB had launched an investigation. “We’re thinking it’s trying to make a safe landing on the highway,” an eyewitness in the car that gathered the footage told WESH 2. “Boom, front tyre goes right onto the car that’s right in front of us, it was so scary. Debris started coming at us, we had to swerve out of the way.” Florida Highway Patrol and the FAA are also involved in the investigation.
