| Name | David P |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Again, I did not see the meteor. I was driving and suddenly there was a white flash that illuminated everything for a split second, just like lightning or flash photography in the dark. Wondered what it was and looked to the internet news for possible sources, including a meteor. My responses to some questions, consequently, such as direction the meteor was traveling, angles, etc. are not applicable to my experience. |
