The same story circulates around America too, only it's an F-18 landing at Miramar.  The landing pattern takes them over the freeway.

That's not the point. It proves the Sidewinder can be used on ground targets. :P

I don't see why they couldn't be... A hovering helicopter is an air target, but what if it's stationary at a certain altitude? If the altitude is zero, and you're a bobbie, and you're going nowhere, then you're still kind of an air target. Sort of?  :( ;)

Missiles can certainly chase an SUV  ;D

If a higher surface elevation is involved, as long as the tracking radar can lock on, even a SAM can take out a ground target. Other than the fact that the antenna array was limited on low end elevation, the biggest problem we had was sorting out a low level acft from ground clutter in the distance. Fortunately, the plane got closer and, unless the plane dropped ordnance, the trees and buildings didn't; we rarely tried locking onto stationary targets -- the moving targets were of much greater concern.
