Spherical white object flying at high rate of speed southwest while driving on Parkway in Forked River, NJ.
I was driving to work, southbound on the Garden State Parkway, at approximately 6:45am, between Toms River and Forked River. I saw a spherical white object coming down, or so I thought, initially I thought it was falling, but the longer I looked, which admittedly wasn't very long, I realized the object wasn't falling, it was flying at high rate of speed south or southwest,and then it was just gone. When I say gone I don't mean it disappeared, I mean it just flew that fast out of sight.
I'm very familiar with planes and helicopters in my sky, I grew up very close to LaGuardia airport, I currently live in the vicinity of Macquire Fort Dix joint base in Lakehurst, and most recently I had a fighter jet pass over my apartment earlier last year when it was scrambled to President Trump's NJ golf club, so planes and other man-made objects I'm familiar with. I've seen meteorites, as I tried to explain to myself what I had just seen, I wrote that off because there was no tail trailing. If it was a jet fighter, at the speed I saw this thing moving, it would have probably created a boom, and I don't believe they're allowed to fly that fast in residential areas. There were also no flashing red or blue lights.
