I had an experience/sighting three nights ago on Tuesday 28 May 2019 at 23.48 that has really freaked me out to say the least.
I'm a HGV driver by trade based in Liverpool and that night I had two deliveries on a double deck trailer, the first being Penrith, the second Whiteheaven, it was quite a clear night that evening and even at that time there was still some light left in the sky, as I approached Bassenthwaite lake I noticed up ahead something flying at a slow speed from left to right what I could only describe as a very thin pencil with a dim yellowish light at either end and some sort of light that was even dimmer in the middle.
I remember saying out loud to myself something like 'God, that's low' as I thought it was a helicopter; the general spot it came from there's a small farm house with a small field with some cows in and behind that there's a large mountain.
As I approached, the object had crossed the road and had become partially hidden behind a large tree; maybe a couple of seconds lapsed before I cleared the tree and upon looking up through my off-side/drivers window I witnessed a perfect triangular craft with a dim yellowish light at each corner travelling very slow, maybe 30 mph, I'm not sure what that is in airspeed.
The triangle craft had no or very little sound as I had my window half down and no strobe lights and I would estimate about 80 to a 100 feet from point to point; it then flew over the lake heading in a north east direction, the experience lasted maybe no more than ten seconds and even though there's a lay-by a bit further on for some reason I didn't stop, I think if I'm really honest I was scared and I haven't stopped thinking about it since.
I've always been interested in UFOs but this experience has well and truly freaked me out and I can't help thinking to myself if it really happened; but I definitely know that it was real and as a HGV driver I have regular drink and drug tests and I'm of sound mind.
I made this report because I needed to share this experience and after Googling I got a result on this website from someone else who witnessed a similar craft whilst travelling on the A66 last year. |
