They're car headlights, which are indeed a real thing.

There are no cars - or roads - where the lights can be seen.

I'm aware that there's widespread support for the idea that there's some odd atmospheric effect with refraction or something, that displaces the apparent location of real headlights. But even granting that, it doesn't change that it's a pretty weird thing.
