Default Ignition coil bolt snapped in half

Hello,
I was replacing the spark plugs on my 2016 Toyota 200t. After I replaced them and tightened the ignition coil bolt, it snapped in half. I've attached an image for reference. Can you suggest a solution? Is this an easy fix? Is it safe to drive the car temporarily?

I would not drive it.
bolt extractor kit or weld on a nut and remove it. Seems like a over torque bolt, hopefully you didn't mess up the tread.
