Stationary , oval shape, metal bottom, bright light.

I was heading north on Island highway, pass Nanaimo Airport and The Bungy Zone. It’s a small stretch of the highway between two farms and between a golf course on the left and and plant nursery on the right. When I drove passed the Bungy Zone I came upon a very bright light low in the sky, which I assumed it was a plane coming in for a landing. I kept getting closer and it seemed the bright light was not moving. Driving I was getting very close, it was on my right side close to the nursery. So I bent down in my truck to see what the bright light was. I was beside it and I believe the bright light in the front switched off and two lights came on the side of the vessel(a white light and a light yellowish light) it looked like metal on the bottom no numbers on the bottom and it wasn’t smooth it had indents.I could not see if it had any top because of the lights. It wasn’t moving and it was level with tree tops and between two trees. I had co workers minutes behind me and in front of me, I asked them if they saw but nobody saw. No photos or video but I drew a picture that is not really close to what it looked like.
