It was over in a flash but it was definitely either a shooting “star” or a plane falling. I even tried to recreate it to see if maybe the street lights just landed funny on my windshield as I drove past but nope

Remarks
It was just a streak after the super bright ball. I’d say about 75% the opacity of the fully opaque glowing ball
Terminal flash
Observation
Yes
Remarks
It was already glowing crazy bright but then flashed a big flash right before it went down behind some trees. Like exactly the way you see shooting stars do in movies
