LAX Runway Close Call
The incident occurred while the plane, full of passengers, was taxiing at a slow speed.
Audio from the cockpit reveals a clearly alarmed pilot using expletives as he alerted the control tower to the near-miss.
This event follows a similar deadly crash at LaGuardia Airport just weeks ago, raising urgent questions about ground safety protocols at major U.S. hubs.
Investigators are currently reviewing surveillance footage and communication logs to determine how the trucks were allowed to cross in front of the aircraft.
