| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | This was first spotted by my wife, who was in the passenger seat of my truck. We were traveling east bound in the k-10 to 435E interchange. I first saw the brightness reflecting off the hood of my truck, then slowed and watched the object travel and eventually terminate. |
