I was driving home and happened to be glancing out my drivers side window when "BOOM" there it was. It was quick but very large. Was surprised how large the tail of sparks was behind it.

Remarks
It looked similar to that of a firework off to my East. I was quite large and had what looked like sparks or a tale coming off of the back end.
