I saw this footage today of the Taiwanese plane clipping a bridge before plugging in a river. Very sad and condolences to the family. I am amazed that the driver saw the plane coming and kept his composure.

Dramatic dashcam footage in Taiwan shows a TransAsia Airways plane scraping past a major highway moments before it careened into a shallow river, killing at least 23 people, with 20 others missing and 15 hospitalized.
The plane, which was carrying 58 people, clipped a bridge shortly after Wednesday’s takeoff from Taipei's downtown Sungshan Airport, state media said. The plane was visible from Taiwan’s busy National Freeway No. 1 just seconds before the crash.

The plane could be seen veering sharply, with the wing striking a vehicle and barrier on the plane's descent.
