I was heading from Rhode Island toward Massachusetts on 295 on 10/16 between 7:30- 8:00 PM, when I saw a bright light off in the distance in MA, to my right, come out of nowhere from the sky and shoot down toward earth at an extremely high rate of speed. I watched it and expected to hear or feel something when it impacted thinking it may have been a meteor. But there was nothing. It was quite a distance away; while I continued to drive, I then saw three planes flying in the general area the light appeared. They came from three different directions. Then all disappeared heading in the same direction.
