It was an unbelievable moment for occupants of a vehicle driving on a Canada road when they narrowly missed getting hit by a small plane.
The vehicle's dashcam captured the terrifying moment and shows the plane almost colliding with the vehicle's front hood before crashing.    
The incident occurred in Markham, Canada, as single-engine plane lost control right after taking off from a runway at Buttonville Airport on Tuesday, CTV News reported.

"That the aircraft wasn't involved in a collision with a vehicle coming through here is quite amazing," York Regional Police Sergeant Dave Mitchell told CTV News.
According to Global News, the plane was carrying two people - an instructor and a student who were treat by paramedics for minor injuries. Fortunately, no motorists were injured in the accident either.
According to investigators, the plane crashed because it did not gain enough altitude during takeoff. The viral video attracted shocked comments online and has been viewed over 9,000 times.
