white light makes a 90 degree right turn and vanishes

Driving to Fort Worth, TX from Wichita Kansas the day after Christmas. It looked like a shooting star at first but then it turned left at a 90 degree angle and then it vanished. I was looking staight ahead but slightly up toward the sky. We drove straight toard it. It seemed very high in the sky and it was just a white light. It could well have been a shooting star although I have never seen or heard of one that makes a 90 degree turn. It seemed like as it came down right before the turn it stopped, just for a split second but it happened very fast. My husband was driving and was watching the road not the sky.
