A small aircraft crashed into a car while making an emergency landing on the I-95 highway near Cocoa, Florida, one of the busiest roads in the area, local authorities announced.
The incident involved a Beechcraft 95-C55 Baron, registered as N95KC, and occurred on December 8, 2025. Fox Orlando reported that the plane hit a 2023 Toyota Camry.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the Toyota Camry was heading south on I-95, south of King Street, in the inside lane when a “fixed wing multi-engine aircraft” suddenly struck it.
FlightAware data shows that the aircraft, operated by Tailwinds Flying, took off from Merritt Island, Florida, at 16:31 local time on December 8, 2025, and was last tracked near the same spot at 17:40 local time after a one hour and nine-minute flight.
Officials said that the plane, carrying two people, landed on the southbound lanes of the interstate in Cocoa near mile marker 201 around 17:45 local time.
Video footage of the incident quickly spread on social media, clearly showing the aircraft descending onto the highway and hitting a car in the second lane.
