While the sighting lasted between three and four minutes, the witness felt as though he was somehow influenced as an observer.
"I slowed my speed from 55-60 to low 40s once I realized the object was not moving. The truck seemed to drive itself as I got 'lost' watching this. This may sound odd, but I had an overwhelming feeling that 'nothing was going on.' That's the best way I can describe how I felt."
The witness continued driving until finding a safe spot to pull over.
"In hindsight, I regret not pulling into the shoulder to film it. I was able to capture a 20-second iPhone5 video of it. The video is shaky because I was still driving and using elbows to steer. The object appears to be moving because the phone is bouncing everywhere. The object was definitely not moving though. When I pulled into the diesel station, trees and a ridge blocked any view I could have had."
The witness provided one map and one video clip with the MUFON report, which was filed on February 18, 2014. Watsontown is a a borough in Northumberland County, PA, population 2,254.
