Heidi B
Experience Level
1/5
Remarks
I was driving Northbound on the 405 freeway when the bright, white streak (like a giant shooting star) caught my eye to the right of the freeway and traveled from right to left over the freeway and looked like it descended behind the hill/mountain to the left of the freeway.
