If I am driving on a road, and a flying saucer with a spotlight is hovering ahead waiting to land, do I have to stop in the roadway and yield to them? Or do they have to yield to cars in the road? I checked my states driving manual and they don’t mention alien air/spacecraft at all.
I would guess that the UFO would have the right of way, as traffic would have to eventually stop for them anyways. Should I just stop in the roadway and put my hazards on so the flying saucer pilot is aware I am yielding the right of way to them?
For a flying saucer, if they have the ground-facing spotlight on they are preparing to land. They don’t keep the spotlight on if they don’t need visibility of the ground. In fact, that would be reckless as the spotlight might blind (not literally, but just light glare) people on the ground.
That’s not what I remember from Close Encounters, but it’s been a while and maybe saucer flying regulations have changed since then.
