Just when you think you've seen it all.

I had a job to go to in Glasgow city centre earlier this evening so went in early and popped into Shettleston Tesco for fuel and some things first.

I was driving towards the city centre on the a89, a 4 lane wide carriageway 30mph street lit road and I'm approaching some traffic lights which are green.

It was about 5pm and very dark.

I can see some cars coming towards me.
In their lane 2 I can see a large 4x4 vehicle as I can see his headlights but there is something low down blocking out his number plate.

As I get closer it looks like a toddler on a bike.

As I get closer still I realise it is a very young boy on a mini moto.
Credit to the lad he was wearing a helmet but unfortunately he had no reflective gear on not any lights whatsoever.

The lights changed and I passed the bike and 4x4 (going the other direction) and went up to the red light ( I was in my lane 1)

I watch in my mirrors as the lad does a u turn and heads towards me.

I can't do nothing so I get out the car and wave the boy off the road.

I didn't lose the rag but said in no uncertain terms that he wasn't being sensible and could easily have been killed.

He nonchalantly bumps up on the kerb without saying a word and carries on regardless.

I've a 7 year old boy who admittedly is a bit of a giant but I'd say the lad was probably no older than 7.....with a mental age of about 2.

Crazy stuff.....still in shock.

wow, thats some crazt shiz there.....

sounds like he could have been very close to being a statistic

Pity you couldn't find out who he was and report his parents to social services, Im sure the safe guarding team would want to know about that.

Unbelievable.
