UFO over the Dulles Toll Road Last Week

Did anyone see the UFO over the Dulles Toll Rd last Tuesday evening around 5:45? It was around the Reston Town Center.
Much too low to be a shooting star, or a commercial aircraft. And too fast to have been any military plane. It stood still in the air, lit up and took off across the sky, glowing yellow. As if it was combusting fuel. A sight to behold.
Did anybody else see this?

It's called a commercial airliner with it's landing lights on. Probably not going to Dulles, but to Reagan.
Since it is approaching you dead on, it will appear to sit there for a long time as a very bright and large light, and then suddenly it will zoom past you.
I see these "UFOs" all the time while driving along the toll road, mostly closer to the main toll plaza.

I love it when people use their wealth of aviation knowledge to definitively rule out airliners, helicopters, all military aircraft, and even meteors by looking at a light in the sky.
It could have been an aircraft coming at you head-on, it could have been a helicopter or an airliner high enough up in the sky, and without a frame of reference, to make it look closer or further away than it actually was.
Besides, if it were some mysterious object, given its close proximity to dulles airport, and the upcoming inauguration, there would have been fighters in the sky if it were anything other than a known aircraft.
Stop being a dumbass.

I had not intended to speak up here, but I saw it too. Tuesday night, around 5:30 for me. I drive a bus down the toll-road to Falls Church metro just about all day every day. I have seen planes of course, from every angle imaginable. I have seen military jets as well. This was not a human manned aircraft.
A small black vessel darting across the sky, back and forth, randomly. And yes, it did light up yellow while it would shoot from point A to point B.
Oh well. I guess I'm crazy just like everyone else in the world who has seen one of these. Send me to the looney bin.

You picked the name of Occam's Razor, and then try and claim that aliens are visiting the Dulles Toll road instead of one of the thousands of aircraft already present on this planet.
Good job...
