This insane dashcam video shows a plane making an emergency landing in the middle of traffic

When you come up to a red light, and are trying to make a right turn, it can be annoying when cars keep streaming by and blocking you. But when those cars are planes, it's pretty hilarious.

That's what happened last week in Orange County, California. Dashcam footage shot by a bystander captures the surreal moment as a small plane makes an emergency landing in the middle of traffic - all while seeming to obey all relevant traffic laws in the process.
