UFO acted as a vehicle.

Friday morning we left to go to a concert and I was responsible fro driving us back, from Ocotillo, CA to Phoenix, AZ and back. The concert ended shortly before midnight and we started our way back home. Nothing unusual happened most of the way until we reached the last border check point about 20 or so miles east of El Centro. The odd thing about it was that there was no one stationed at the checkpoint, I slowed down then just drove away since no one was around it. The vehicle behind me stayed. 5-10 miles passed it I ended up being pulled over by California Border Patrol (Very common government force in the area for obvious reasons) as a normal routine. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Then about a few more miles in a slightly vehicle populated freeway. I noticed something what looked like a plane was going to land in the distance because it had a slowly flashing red and white light. I was a little surprised considering there was no airports for over 40 miles. What happened next, blew me away.

It turned on two front light sources, like a standard car and followed the path of a small bridge we were going to pass under. It's common that roads go over highways so a small bridge is formed. I thought at first it was just a car and the plane probably went behind it and out of view. However, this was not the case. Whatever was flying the craft, imitated a vehicle on the road. I turned into disbelief as soon as I saw the "headlight" that was at the front of the craft started to roll leftwards and rightwards in about 60 degree angles at fast paces. it went passed the bridge and flew over the small pasture. I pointed it out to my sleepy friends and noticed a small faint light was glowing in and out. It honestly looked like it fainted into the sky but it then turned around and started flying low, headlights turned back on and it was literally 2 feet off the ground. I was traveling 80mph and this thing accelerated real fast. For a moment there, it looked like we wer! e both going to collide. Before it hit the freeway it turned its headlights off(headlights kind of dimmed out) and flew up and over the freeway. Saw the red and white light underneath it. As it was flying away I noticed a small hole at the back of it that looked yellow, similar to a jet engine but probably no bigger than a steering wheel. It was about the length of a car, gray, no taller than 3 feet, elongated. Then I drove under the bridge, trying to keep an eye on it. Literally right after the bridge there was a bright light to the right of us that shined on us for a split second like a camera flash. The vehicle did not make any noise at all.
