Imagine this: you\u2019re driving down the highway, minding your own business, when suddenly a plane drops out of the sky and lands on your car. That\u2019s exactly what happened to one driver yesterday evening in Cocoa, Florida.<\/p>\n

According to WESH 2<\/a>, a small multi-engine airplane attempted an emergency landing on I-95 in Brevard County around 5:45 PM. The pilot reported engine trouble shortly after takeoff during an instructional flight from Merritt Island, according to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).<\/p>\n

The pilot attempted to bring the plane down safely on the highway, but couldn\u2019t avoid a Toyota Camry traveling southbound near mile marker 201. The plane came down on top of the car, causing a serious crash.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, the 57-year-old Camry driver was taken to a local hospital with only minor injuries. The 27-year-old pilot and his 27-year-old passenger were uninjured. The entire incident was captured on a dash cam by Jim Coffey.<\/p>\n

Coffey told Spectrum News 13<\/a> that he and his son “saw this plane fall out of the sky” before it hit the Toyota. “I was like, \u2018Hopefully it lands to the side,'” he said. “I thought it might maybe aim around and not hit the car, but bam\u2014the wheel just smacked right on the back of the car.”<\/p>\n

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is conducting a full investigation.<\/p>\n
