Bright Red and Blue flashing lights following the highway, approaching us in opposite direction observed before disappearing.

Traveling North East on highway 160 approaching the town of Pahrump Nevada at approximately 1:30 a.m. on 05/14/3023, my girlfriend and I observed what appeared to be a highway patrol car or motorcycle approaching us in the opposite direction at a very high rate of speed (approximately 100 mph or higher) with its extremely bright alternating and "flashing" red and blue emergency lights on, coming in the opposite direction. As the lights got closer I realize that there were no headlights or other forward facing white lights of any kind but what appeared to be a total of 8 red and blue flashing lights in the shape of a cross. As it approached us I saw it was apparently not a car, I thought to myself it's got to be a motorcycle. As it appeared to be hovering just above the road surface. As our vehicle was closing the distance of the oncoming object / lights and just before our point of intersecting or passing the other object at about a 100 yards in front of us it completely disappeared in front of our eyes...

Nothing passed us, there was no sound and no light, it was just completely gone. I hit the brakes rolled down the window look to see if it was possible "if whatever it was" could have went off the road but there was a guardrail and would have been impossible. It was just gone !!! Poof
I even turned around to see what it was and where it went. But there is absolutely nothing there. The lights were incredibly bright and then whatever it was disappeared into thin Air…

Thinking it was an emergency vehicle, I was slowing down and looking for a place to pull off to the side to let it pass. I noticed that there was a car about a quarter mile in front of us that actually passed the light as it was coming through a sweeping left hand bend in the road towards us. The entire situation reminded me of the scene out of the movie close encounters of the third kind where in the beginning of the movie there was a UFO flying down the road… Inexplicable it's impossible there's no way that it was a drone or another type of vehicle. It just disappeared before our very eyes.
