Small plane makes emergency landing on New Jersey Turnpike

A small plane carrying a traffic reporter has made an emergency landing on a highway in New Jersey, in the US. The Cessna set down on the New Jersey Turnpike, about five miles (8km) east of Philadelphia, after a low oil pressure indicator came on.
Neither the pilot nor the reporter were injured, officials said.
"The plane landed, he taxied it over to the shoulder. We can't even get motorists to do that when they break down," a highways spokesman said.
Joe Orlando said traffic was backed up for about 1.5 miles (2.4km) in both directions after the early morning incident, mostly by people rubber-necking.
"For the first time in eight years, I can probably say you had a good reason to stop and look," Mr Orlando was quoted as saying by AP news agency.
The plane was loaded onto a truck and taken to a New Jersey Turnpike Authority maintenance yard.
The Federal Aviation Administration is due to conduct an investigation.

At least the pilot landed the plane safely and that is all that matters. Silly folk though crashing as not paying attention to the road..but then again not every day you have a plane land on it I guess.wink
