    The truck was legally in the correct place. It was however pilot error for having his glide path too close to the road.

    "Oh look, a big long stretch of pavement with no one parked here. Looks like a good place for a 10... wonder what these painted lines are for"

    He was legally on highway 53, not in the airport. Please read the story. The pilot was too low for his landing and clipped the truck. If tthere were power lines he would have shredded his plane as well from too low an altitude

    I hope he wasn't speeding, otherwise he's at fault since he shouldn't have been there yet. Right @scottied67 :)
