Iguala bus encounter, Guerrero
In 1967 a bus driver near Iguala said a light that dropped toward the road blinded him and forced an emergency stop, until a second flash sent the object away.

The account
Excélsior reported the case at the time. A local ejido official looked into it and reached no conclusion. It is one of several 1960s road encounters reported in Mexican newspapers.
The sceptical view
A single-witness story known only from a press report; a bright meteor or another vehicle's lights could have produced the same experience.
