I was driving the other night, on a quiet suburban road.
It was suddenly bright all around me, I sped up to see if it was just a street light. The light followed me, so bright. There was no noise, only the light.
I wound down my window, and looked up at the light - I couldn't see anything but the white glare, as it was too bright.
Then as quick as it came, it moved along.
It was, of course, a semi-silent police helicopter chasing a fugitive, but checking out my car also.
This is the kind of common misunderstanding that causes people to believe in UFOs.
A less sceptical person might have assumed it was a UFO. And conspiracy nuts would go wild.
