Occurred: 1998-06-30 01:30 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2006-12-30 22:47 Pacific
Duration: 5-10 sec.
No of observers: 2

Location: Quartzite, AZ, USA

Shape: Flash
Characteristics: Lights on object

When this object made its turn to the south, it was a 90 o turn in an instant, not a radius trun like an aircraft.

My wife and I were traveling north on Az. Hwy.95 about 1:30 in the morning on our way to Parker, AZ. We were north of the Yuma Proving Grounds about 15- 20 miles south of Quartzite. We saw this very brite white pulsating light traveling from east to west at extreamly high speed at approx. 100ft altitude at about mile in front of our location.

Once this object crossed the road in front of us this object made an immediate 90 o turn to the south passing by us about 200ft. from the side of the road still at 100ft. altitude and then gone.

I have traveled this road more time than I can remember most of it at night and have not seen anyhting like this before or since.
