Close encounter with a UFO leaves New Zealand man profoundly shocked.

"I was changing a CD as I was driving and when I looked up I saw what looked like a car without its lights on, stopped in the middle of the road outside Shantytown. I slammed on my brakes and my eyes were still trying to focus, when suddenly the thing just lit up and shot into the sky." The witness adds that other drivers must have seen it, but so far no reports. Was this a UFO or a secret aircraft? Because he also states that it became extremely bright as it rose, your Out There editor votes for something from the unknown.
