Something walking upright in Providence County, Rhode Island

I was driving along Route 6 crossing the CT state line into RI. The road is very dark and heavily wooded in this particular area. As I was traveling east, something quickly moved across the road in front of me. I was driving approximately 55 mph. Once I registered what I was seeing I also realized that whatever it was, it had walked on two legs. It cleared the guardrail on the side of the road in one step and was gone. I was very spooked. The whole incident lasted less than 30 seconds, though I think about it often., especially when I drive through that area.
