Take that, non-believers! I believed, and the aliens are finally here to whisk me away to a better life! Hold on, my producer's talking to me. ...Wait, that's not real? But it -- it's a UFO! That's someone's car? So, no aliens? Well. That's disappointing. In Crawford County, Missouri, officers pulled over a unique vehicle.

Per the New York Post, the traffic stop happened on the interstate. The spacecraft had committed a lane violation. It also had an expired license plate, which is odd. Who knew that land-based spaceships could even have license plates?
Apparently, with the "wind/traffic of the interstate plus the size and aerodynamics of his vehicle, he understood that the potential for lane violations existed," Public Information Officer and Undersheriff Major Adam Carnal said in an email to Fox News. "Given the good nature of the driver and the interesting nature of the vehicle, we opted to provide a fun social media post for our community. It was a great interaction and we wished him safe travels to his destination."
The driver was given a written warning for the violations, and everyone had a good time! The official Crawford County Sheriff's Office Facebook page even had some fun with it!
"These friendly humanoids, who have come in peace," the post reads. Hopefully, our space traveler made it safely to their destination!
