Dude, I totally saw a meteor or something do that with my buddy one night driving home from a concert. I think its trash from space honestly.

Sounds like it might have been a bolide. Bolides are meteors that explode in a bright flash in the upper atmosphere. I'm guessing you weren't in view to see the meteor itself.
Was the flash something like this?

Was it at sunset? I heard that there's a rare illusion that happens when the the sun is setting at the right angle and other stuff. It makes a bright green flash appear in the sky for a few seconds, then vanish.

it definitely wasn't a bolide, or a meteor flash. it was just an instantaneous flash, and the sun had set for roughly three hours, so it wasn't that pirates of the carribean phenomenon. me thinks its aliens.

At sunset it coulda been the Green Flash...
If it was later and dark, and it was storming, like it is further down the coast, then it could have been an arc-flash from a transformer...
Or... it could have been "swamp gas reflecting off a weather balloon with light from Venus"... Like the man said...

i saw the same thing a few years ago! only i was driving through the middle of buttfuck nowhere in southeast idaho, middle of the night, after driving through a blizzard. the whole horizon lit up with a green flash, like some sort of explosion, only it wasn't localized enough to be an explosion.. it was an entire section of the sky, and it was too brief to be something like the northern lights. the other two people in my car saw it too. i've never been able to figure out what it could be i kinda forgot about it until you mentioned this

When i was younger i was in the car with my parents and brother down in FL and the entire sky on the right side of our car lit up pure white for about .75s or so, which is really long to be lightning or an explosion of some kind, then went back to darkness (9pmish) No one figured out what caused it but it was odd.
