ROUND RED FUZZY OBJECT MOVING WEST TO EAST IN A VERY FAST MANNER.

WAS DRIVING NORTH ON RT.130 AND SPOTTED A ROUND FUZZY ALMOST FIREBALL LIKE OBJECT. WAS VERY BRIGHT AND WAS MOVING WEST TO EAST. WAS LOW IN THE HORIZON AND LASTED ABOUT 5-8 SECONDS. LOST SIGHT OF IT BEHIND THE TREELINE AND WAS UNABLE TO REGAIN SIGHT OF IT. MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS IT WAS AND AIRCRAFT ON FIRE AND GOING DOWN. BUT IT MOVED MORE HORIZONTAL AND WAS NOT REALLY HEADING IN A DOWNWARD PROJECTION. TURNED ON NEWS AND THERE WAS NO REPORT OF A CRASH. OBJECT WAS MOVING PRETTY QUICK FOR A LOW OBJECT.
