Overfly of I-19 of triangle shaped-three light object

As we were coming home from a trip to New Mexico, I spotted three bright blue-white lights almost directly infront of me on a frontage road along I-19. They appeared to be moving very slowly and maybe 50-75 feet off the ground in relation to telephone poles nearby. They continued moving slowly across I-19 heading East to West , then abruptly picked up speed , then altitude. they were completely out of sight on the Western horizon about 1 minute after this abrupt speed and altitude change happened.

After getting over the shock, we both remember that there was a faint outline of a straight wing or structure on one side of the object. I opened my drives side window and heard zero motor noise from the object(s). My wife then told me of her previous sighting a previous night of the same three blue-white lights heading in the opposite direction over mountains in the southeast.
