Glasgow cyclist seen attempting to merge onto M8 during morning …

A Glasgow motorist was left stunned after seeing a cyclist brazenly[1] travelling on the motorway during rush hour.

The driver spotted the cyclist as he came on to the slip road east bound to join the M8 alongside him on Thursday morning. The man, who wasn’t wearing a helmet or any protective gear, appeared to be oblivious to the fact he wasn’t supposed to be on the jam-packed road.

After ignoring beeping by the driver, the cyclist appears to continue on the road at Charing Cross[2] before reportedly merging onto the motorway.

The cyclist is not the first to be spotted in potentially dangerous circumstances. Earlier this year we reported how another man was spotted cycling in the middle of two lanes on the five-lane section of the M8 with a shopping bag over his handlebars.

Within a few months, a cyclist has been seen pedalling towards oncoming traffic on the same road.
