Atlanta Highway Plane Landing Blocks 4 Lanes Of Traffic As Rush Hour Begins SKYFOX Mansfield plane.

The pilot of a light aircraft had a lucky escape when he made an emergency landing on a busy highway near Atlanta in the US last night. The plane was forced down on an interstate highway, when it ran into mechanical problems. Amazingly, there were no collisions or injuries although apparently, it did cause a few traffic jams.

Authorities say a small plane made a smooth emergency landing without hitting any cars on a busy stretch of Interstate 85 in northeast Atlanta just as the city’s evening rush hour began.

Television shots showed traffic snarled for miles as the Piper Saratoga blocked at least four lanes of traffic about 5 p.m. Monday. It was hauled away a couple hours later.
