| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Matt W |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | I was changing lanes, so this happened as I checked my rear view mirror, the bollide appeared, I checked my blind spot and changed over 2 lanes, looked back immediately and saw it flash twice and end with a yellow/gold/white train. I went into detail to elaborate how long of an event it was, at least 2-3 seconds. Likely 4-7 |
