large light traveling at high speed quietly below commercial plane elevation

Driving north bound on I87 between exits 5-6 in Albany NY on 10/02/23 around 8:25 PM.
Large light crossed the sky starting from behind my back right shoulder and flew directly forward of me.
The light was lower than planes that were actively in the sky.
There was no audible sounds that were heard during the sighting.
The light travelled across faster than one could say one Mississippi. The light was white, with light trails coming off the sides of the object.
The object appeared triangular in shape with no light trailing directly behind, only the sides. The light vanished directly infront of me at the edge of the horizon.
