Several Taiwanese drivers captured the final moments before TransAsia flight GE235 crash landed into a river near the country’s capital city of Taipei today.
Multiple videos have been uploaded to YouTube showing the turboprop ATR-72 rolling to the left as it rapidly descended over a road.
TheVerge adds:
Footage of the plane crash appears to show the plane’s wing appears striking a car traveling along the raised expressway. Photos provided by Taiwan’s TVBS appear to show a taxi cab on the same stretch of road with extensive damage that could have been caused by collision with the plane’s wing.
