A nail-biting video shows traffic dodging a woman as she drives down a freeway on a motorized shopping cart.
According to a video from the Twitter account SafetyAlertsMN, a woman can be seen riding down an exit ramp on an undisclosed freeway in Minnesota. The woman is wearing a red shirt and black pants and appears to have a plastic bag over her head.
The terrifying video shows the woman heading south as she enters the Northbound lanes of the freeway. As she drives the electric scooter in the slow lane, cars are rushing towards her. Thankfully, all of the vehicles could merge over into the middle lane without causing an accident or hurting the woman.
As she drives towards oncoming traffic, she gets angry and throws her arms up in the air as cars fly towards her. The video then forwards to her leaving the scooter in the middle of the slow lane and running to the grass area on the side of the freeway.
But that wasn't it for the woman. She then runs back to the scooter and dive rolls from the freeway to the grass area. State Troopers arrive a few minutes later.
Luckily, no one was hurt during the incident. According to the Twitter account, Minnesota State Troopers were able to get her to safety and transport her for evaluation.
