A preliminary report from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has provided new details about an incident involving a United Airlines passenger flight that struck a light pole while landing at Newark Liberty International Airport on May 3. The aircraft had departed from Venice, Italy, and was approaching its landing when the copilot recognized that the plane was descending lower than intended. However, he stated that he did not realize the severity of the situation in time to initiate an aborted landing or go-around procedure. According to the report, the first officer recalled advising that the aircraft was “still slow and a little low” during its descent. Despite this awareness, the situation developed too quickly to correct the approach before touchdown. Crew members described hearing a loud “thump” and feeling a mild jolt just before the aircraft made contact with the runway area, consistent with the plane striking a light pole during landing. The NTSB emphasized that this is an initial report and does not yet determine the root cause of the incident or assign responsibility. Investigators have not identified whether mechanical issues, pilot decision-making, environmental conditions, or other factors contributed to the low approach. The report also does not include safety recommendations at this stage. The investigation remains ongoing as authorities continue to analyze flight data, cockpit communications, and operational procedures to better understand how the aircraft descended below the intended glide path and to prevent similar events in the future.

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) released documents on March 11, 2026, detailing two fatal crashes in 2024 involving Ford Mustang Mach-E vehicles using the BlueCruise hands-free driving system. In the first incident, on February 2024 in San Antonio, Texas, a driver traveling at 74 mph on Interstate 10 struck a stationary 1999 Honda CR-V, killing its driver. Ford's driver monitoring system showed the Mach-E driver looking at the infotainment screen in the five seconds before impact, with only brief glances at the road. He received alerts to refocus but did not brake. The driver reported using navigation to a charging station. A photo captured two seconds prior showed him upright but facing slightly right. In the second crash, March 2024 on Interstate 95 in Philadelphia, a 23-year-old driver, Dimple Patel, hit a stopped 2012 Hyundai Elantra at 72 mph in a 45 mph construction zone, also striking a 2006 Toyota Prius. Both stopped drivers died; Patel, who was intoxicated and charged with DUI homicide, had minor injuries. Monitoring indicated her eyes were 'on-road,' but a photo showed her holding a phone above the wheel, possibly evading detection. Neither crash activated automatic emergency braking (AEB), as Ford notes limitations in detecting stationary targets under those conditions. The NTSB will hold a public hearing on March 31 in Washington, D.C., to discuss findings and issue recommendations to Ford. Separately, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) continues its probe, upgraded in early 2025, citing BlueCruise's issues detecting stationary vehicles. Ford emphasizes BlueCruise as a convenience feature requiring constant driver attention, not a crash avoidance system, available for a one-time $2,495 fee or $495 annually. These cases echo concerns in prior NTSB probes of Tesla's Autopilot, highlighting driver over-reliance and distraction risks.
