Bright light and dome-shaped object in France

Summary

In February 1993, in the Vienne region of France, a driver observed a powerful flash of white light followed by a dome-shaped object with three luminous circles. The event lasted between 3 and 4 seconds, and the witness continued driving without stopping. The next day, she reported the incident to the gendarmerie, though little information was gathered. The description of the object, while striking, could not confirm whether it was on the ground or in the air, due to the distance and observation conditions. Additionally, the location was a gravel road, suggesting it could have been a vehicle with intense lighting, such as a 4x4 or a tractor. Despite the low reliability of the testimony, the GEIPAN classified the case as "B," meaning ground light.
