Plane & car collide NTSB prilim
Why guess...
If you are implying that it was intentional.. any one with intentions do not
hurt others in the process, he could have just as easily plowed into
something out in the desert to never be found.

It's a major stretch to go from this to assuming the guy wasn't in good
enough health to be airworthy. Lots of folks have issues that would get
in
the way of a third class medical but neither make them ineligible to hold
a
driver's license nor make them unsafe to fly. The fraction of folks who
have
accidents caused by medical issues is tiny, and not significantly
different
for light sport aviation from the general aviation population.
OK, wild ass guess number 2.
His health was just fine, but he lost everything in the stock market.
How many plausible reasons can you come up with for someone flying
along with freeway traffic then turning against it and flying 3 feet
off the ground?
