A circular craft was flying low paralleling my car on the highway.

I had been visiting a friend in Montrose, Colorado on Thanksgiving 2021. I live in Grand Junction, Colorado so after dinner I was driving on highway 50 back home. At around 8:15pm, I just passed Olathe, Colorado and the Tiger Propane business when I saw a circular craft flying in the tree line near some farms in the area to the right of the highway.

The craft was metallic, a dull gray color. Not shiny but dull. It seemed a little bigger than a large suv. It was a perfect circle. It was flying slightly faster than my car and was only a few hundred feet off the ground. It came out of the tree line and I got a perfect look at it. It paralleled my car for a mile or two over a large crop area. It then sped up and got ahead of me about a quarter mile. It then shot across the highway in front of me and then completely disappeared on the other side of the highway. I had my cruise control set at 70mph at the time so the speed of the craft was interesting.

When I passed the area of the highway where it crossed the highway the lights in my rear view mirrors became wavy. It was almost as though I was driving through an area where there was a disturbance in the air. That only lasted a few seconds and then I could easily see the lights behind me.

At first I thought it was a weather balloon but it did not move like a balloon. It also gained speed fast. Also it completely disappeared. I am not a ufo junkie and not someone that reports these kind of things but this incident and what I saw is not something I can forget so I figure I should report it so that if someone wants to they can investigate it.
