driving on 99 south freeway. fast moving bright light going east to west diagonally

I was traveling southbound on the 99 freeway right after the transition from 80W to 99. A bright light (illuminated brighter than the freeway lights) moving from upper eastern sky diagonally to lower western horizon to "ground". My daughter saw it as well and described it as a "shooting" star but that did not look like a star. It looked like a fast moving aerial object moving that moved in a straight diagonally line from top east to bottom west. It fell fast like it would "crash" but just disappeared at horizon. Too straight, diagonal, and too fast to be a plane or helicopter landing. It was a single white light. I wish I had captured this somehow with a picture or a video but it happened too fast, too quick.
