I seen a big white ball of light followed by a trail of lights

I saw a big fireball of white light followed by a trail of spontaneous white fiery lights that were smaller than the big ball. I was in my car and it was at car level with me but probably a thousand yards away and it was headed downward, towards the ground fast. It wasn't in the sky. It was similar to a shooting star but it was not up in the atmosphere, it was right in front of me. I drove around the corner to see where it had gone and there was nothing there, it was like it was never there. There was nothing on fire, there was nothing blown up, it was just like there hadn't been anything there. I can't explain it. And there was no sound.
