while driving i saw a very low craft with three white lights move strangely just above the trees

I saw three white lights which i first thought to be a very low airplane, so low that i was alarmed. i watched it move west, then it came suddenly to a totally stop and switched directions, now moving east at the same slow even pace. i rolled down my window as i got close thinking it was a drone or maybe a helicopter but there was no sound at all. i was less than a block away and it was just above the trees and seemed way to big to be a drone. i could see little lights that seemed to move clockwise between the three white lights. something was reflecting light above the three lights as well, like metal, and seemed to be moving counterclockwise. the object again stopped and suddenly changed directions, now heading north. i watched it move for another 20 seconds, then it came to a stop again. i looked at the road and back and it was gone. i spent the rest of my drive watching but it never reappeared.
