Port Dickinson, New York

Shape: Small ball of light | Duration: 3 - 4 Sec
Source:

Driving home around 9 pm and came to a stop sign. As I was rolling to a stop, I looked to my right in the night sky and saw a large white light at least 4-5x brighter than any star I've ever seen. I'm not confident whether it was already moving before I saw it or if it had moved after I locked eyes on it, but in that instant it had darted forward in front of me. It went so fast it was as if an arrow flew over my head and disappeared behind some trees before going out of view. I considered if it was a meteor streaking across the sky, but I've seen meteors before and they aren't nearly as bright as this or close to the ground. I considered if it was a drone that someone may have been using in the area, but there was no sound or any other distinguishing lights. Not to mention, I can't imagine a drone can travel as fast as it did especially when considering the required speed needed to be achieved while traveling that distance relative to my position. It traveled in a straight line and was very brightly light while I was in an already bright area. Not sure what it could be. Maybe it was really just a huge and bright meteor that was very close to the ground, but I didn't appear that way at all. Whatever it actually was, it was certainly there and it was very cool.
