Driving on Hyw.141 at Hyw. 44 and going East, I witnessed to my right a glowing orb of light streak horizontally from East to West at an extreme rate of speed. There was no trailing tail . The light did not "spill" out of the orb, but instead glowed from within and lite like a light bulb. The orb streaked across the night sky , then made a severe turn to its left leaving my view behind a stand of tall trees. I was so awe-struck that I almost ran into the rear of the vehicle in front of my car.
