A shocking clip showing a man cycling on a busy motorway near Glasgow has gone viral.

The video, shared on TikTok, appears to show a man riding a bicycle in the middle of a lane on the M8 near the city centre.

In the footage, titled 'Only in Glasgow', a passenger is filming the brazen cyclist, who seemed oblivious to the other cars as they travelled along the road.

He had a shopping bag hanging off one of the handlebars and did not appear to be wearing a helmet or any safety gear.
