A medium-sized airplane landed amidst moving traffic south of Quebec City International Airport Thursday morning, with the impressive landing having been caught on tape.
The video, captured and posted to Facebook by user Mathieu Leclerc, shows the propeller plane landing after suspected mechanical issues rendered the plane unsafe to fly.
Incredibly, it doesn't seem like many of the drivers made any real attempt to make way for the airplane, making the landing all the more impressive.
