She says: “I can’t explain what the hell I’m seeing here.
“The truth is I’m flipping out.”
The woman then films the suspected spacecraft apparently flying alongside her car as she drives along a rural road at night.
She says: “How scary!”
The alleged UFO sighting took place in Chile.
The video has gone viral on X with 217,000 views and hundreds of comments, as reported by What’s The Jam.

Another said: “You filmed a wildfire, tremendous video indeed.”
Yen asked: “And when did you realise you were filming a forest fire?”
Ulysses pointed out: “That’s a mountain blaze.”
