Small Plane Lands on Florida Highway During Rush Hour

A small airplane made an emergency landing on a Florida highway ramp during rush hour and crashed into a car.

WESH reports the plane landed Thursday around 5:30 p.m. on an Interstate 4 on-ramp in Maitland, just north of Orlando.

Grindle says the pilot reported the airplane had run out of fuel.

The Greater Orlando Aviation Authority says the aircraft had been heading to Orlando Executive Airport. The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating.
