I was travelling south on u.s. 41, about ten or 15 miles outside of Terre Haute, Indiana. About 200 feet ahead of me, on the east side of the highway, I notice some lights moving in the sky heading west. I thought nothing of it. Thought it was a low flying airplane. As I got closer, I noticed that these lights were REALLY low in the sky. About 100-150 ft. In the air. There were three perfectly round lights. At least 5 times the size of regular car headlights.

The lights did not flash, the two end lights were green and a red light in the middle.

There was a white spotlight that appeared to come from above the other three lights.

The spotlight shined a cone of light in front of it. The colored lights were evenly spaced apart. About as wide as a sedan.

As I passed underneath these lights I stuck my head out of the car window trying to figure out what this thing was.

It was moving slowly, and silently almost like it was floating across the highway.

I couldn't see wings, or even any kind of depth or shape.

It appeared the lights were connected by a string and all moving together.

I have seen planes landing in day and night, even at night , I could always tell it was a plane.

This was no plane.

There were three cars ahead of me and I know they saw this too.

It completely freaked me out.

I called a buddy and described what I saw, he asked had I been smoking crack.

I don't believe in aliens. So this must have been a drone or experimental craft.
