Memphis - An elderly road user was spotted weaving through traffic while piloting a mobility scooter in Memphis.

The YouTube post reads: "A woman with an oxygen tank and flowers took her mobile scooter out for a ride. She getting on the interstate ya'll."

Mobility scooters are not to be used in traffic. The driver filming the video should have contacted the authorities immediately as the scooter poses a hazard to other road users.

WATCH: That time a bear sat in traffic and waved to motorists

Arrive Alive's Johan Jonck said: "I believe the other road users deserve credit for 'shielding' the elderly person from other traffic to ensure that her safety is protected and collisions with other traffic is prevented."
