This is the unbelievable moment a taxi driver was seen walking along a Greater Manchester motorway.
Police spotted the driver avoiding traffic on the M67 motorway in Tameside.
After being clocked risking his life by walking along the road, officers stopped to find out what was going on.
And they were left in disbelief by the taxi driver's 'stupidity' as they discovered the reason why he had been on his feet along the carriageway.
The driver explained that he had been trying to retrieve the magnetic sign from his taxi, which had ended up at the central reservation.
It was as he was on his way to pick it up that police saw him trying to pull off the dangerous move, while other vehicles were using the motorway.
Officers issued the taxi driver with a traffic offence report.
North West Motorway Police has since shared the image online today (December 27) as a warning to other motorists - with officers still hardly able to believe what they saw on the M67.
In a post on Twitter, a spokesperson for North West Motorway Police wrote: "Our ME41 spotted this taxi driver on M67 trying to retrieve his magnetic sign from the central reserve.
"Traffic Offence Report issued #disbelief #stupidity."
