On Monday evening, a small aircraft made an unexpected landing on a Florida highway, colliding with at least one car, according to officials.
The Beechcraft 55, a fixed-wing plane, was forced to make an emergency descent onto Interstate-95 near Merritt Island at approximately 5:45 p.m. after experiencing engine issues, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) informed Fox News Digital.
During its emergency landing, the plane crashed into a 2023 Toyota Camry, as reported by Fox Orlando.
Fortunately, the two people aboard the aircraft—both 27-year-old men from Orlando and Temple Terrace—escaped unharmed.
The pilot and a passenger in the aircraft, a man from Orlando and another from Temple Terrace, both 27, weren’t injured.
